QUESTION 1: (35 points) M u(t) O HR KA DC Motor Hx X(t) In the given system, the flow rate Qi is adjusted by a valve which is actuated by a field controlled DC Motor. The opening x(t) of the valve is controlled as the DC Motor drives the rack and pinion mechanism. The proportional controller having a gain Ka generates a controller voltage u(t) by comparing the measured liquid level Hz(t) with the reference Hr(t).
