 A conceptual method of efficient water


extraction using solar power is shown
beside. During the hours of daylight, the
solar collector would produce electricity
to pump water from the underground
water table to a reservoir (perhaps on a
nearby mountain or hill), and in the early
morning hours, the water would be
released into the irrigation system.

 One of the most important features of the Conceptual method of efficient water extraction using solar power
solar collector is that the collector dish
must track the sun accurately. The block
diagram beside describes the general
philosophy of the sun-tracking system
together with some of the most important
components. The controller ensures that
the tracking collector is pointed toward the
sun in the morning and sends a "start
track" command. The controller constantly
calculates the sun’s rate for the two axes
(azimuth and elevation) of control during
the day. The controller uses the sun rate
and sun sensor information as inputs to
generate proper motor commands to slew
the collector.

Closed-Loop Control Systems


(Feedback Control Systems)

Block diagram of a closed-loop idle-speed control system

The plant refers to the physical system or process being


controlled. It could be a mechanical system, electrical circuit,
Process/Plant chemical process, or any other system that can be controlled or
manipulated

The actuator receives the control signal from the controller and
converts it into a physical action or manipulation that influences
the plant. This could involve activating motors, valves, heaters, or
Actuator any other device that can change the behavior of the system.

The controller is the brain of the feedback control system. It


receives input from the sensor, compares it with the desired
reference value (setpoint), and generates a control signal to
Controller adjust the input to the plant.

The error signal is generated by comparing the output of the


system with the reference input. It represents the difference
Error Signal between the desired and actual states of the system and serves
as the basis for control action by the controller.

The sensor is responsible for measuring the output or the


Sensor (or state of the plant. It converts the physical quantity (such as
Transducer) temperature, pressure, position, etc.) into an electrical
signal that can be processed by the controller.

The feedback path is responsible for providing information


about the system's output back to the controller. It ensures
that the controller can continuously monitor the system's
Feedback Path performance and make adjustments as necessary to
maintain stability and achieve the desired setpoint.

The reference input, also known as the setpoint, is the


desired value or trajectory that the system aims to achieve
Reference Input or track. It represents the target performance or operating
condition that the controller strives to maintain.

A variable resistor, called a potentiometer, is shown.


Practice The resistance is varied by moving a wiper arm along a
Examples fixed resistance. The resistance from A to C is fixed,
but the resistance from B to C varies with the position
of the wiper arm. If it takes 10 turns to move the wiper
arm from A to C, draw a block diagram of the
potentiometer showing the input variable, the output
variable, and (inside the block) the gain, which is a
constant and is the amount by which the input is
multiplied to obtain the output.

An aircraft’s attitude varies in roll, pitch, and yaw as


defined in the Figure. Draw a functional block diagram
for a closed-loop system that stabilizes the roll as
follows: The system measures the actual roll angle
with a gyro and compares the actual roll angle with
the desired roll angle. The ailerons respond to the roll-
angle error by undergoing an angular deflection. The
aircraft responds to this angular deflection, producing
a roll angle rate. Identify the input and output
transducers, the controller, and the plant. Further,
identify the nature of each signal.

A mathematical model of a dynamic system is defined as


a set of equations that represents the dynamics of the
system accurately, or at least fairly well.

Mathematical
Note that a mathematical model is not unique to a given
Modelling system. A system may be represented in many different
of Physical ways and, therefore, may have many mathematical
Systems models, depending on one’s perspective.

The dynamics of many systems, whether they are


mechanical, electrical, thermal, economic, biological, and
so on, may be described in terms of differential equations.
Such differential equations may be obtained by using
physical laws governing a particular system—for example,
Newton’s laws for mechanical systems and Kirchhoff’s
laws for electrical systems.

We must always keep in mind that deriving reasonable


mathematical models is the most important part of the
entire analysis of control systems.
