Feedback and Control Systems

Problem:

The room temperature of an room is to be controlled by varying the power of an indoor radiator. For this specific room the open-loop transfer function from radiator power, , to temperature, is (Thomas, 2005)

The system is assumed to be in the closed-loop configuration shown in the figure.

  1. For a unit step input, calculate the steady-state error of the system.

  2. Design a PI controller of the form that will reduce the step-response error to zero while not changing significantly the transient response. (Hint: Place the zero of the compensator in a position where the closed loop poles of the uncompensated root locus will not be affected significantly.)

  3. Use MATLAB Simulink to simulate the systems and to verify the correctness of your design.
