Detailed
description of topics:
MR-experiment:
Different aspects of the design of a control system are demonstrated with a
simulation-excercise on a personal computer.
First the transferfunction of a given physical
process is developed. Gradually the system behaviour is improved by controller-design
untill a controlled system with optimal performance is obtained. Different types of
disturbances are applied and the behaviour of the controlled system is studied.
The student gains insight in the software package
Matlab/Simulink. The relations between time-diagrams (stepresponse), frequency-diagrams
(Bode, Nyquist and Nichols) and the Root-Locus and their use in controller design methods
become clear. The contents of the course Regeltechniek (Control-engineering) wb2204 are
applied and clarified.
Q-experiment:
Measuring of the cooling-capacity of a freezer. Use of thermodynamic diagram.
S1-experiment:
Transistion from laminar to turbulent flow of a pipeflow is made visible by dye injection.
Influence of temperature. Use of Moody-diagram.
S2-experiment:
Measurements and calculations of Bernoulli's law and the momentum-balance in a conical
tube.
S3-experiment:
Measurements and calculations of the energy loss of a flow at a sudden expansion in a
tube. Discipation to thermal-energy.
