SUMMARY

The discussion centers on a closed loop servomechanism problem involving a feedback system defined by the equation G(t)^-1 = 2.5 x 10^-3 {(1-400k)}D^2+10D+400. Key parameters include the inertia of the turbine blade (1 kg/m), viscous damping (10 rad/s Nm), and motor torque (400[e + k d^2θ/dt^2] Nm). The participant is attempting to reverse engineer the system's definition to derive the quadratic form while addressing potential errors in the problem statement regarding the feedback signal. The solution involves applying control theory and Newton's second law.

1. Homework Statement [/b]

Hey Guys

Firstly thanks for looking, I really appreciate any help or interest with my problem.

The problem is a closed loop feedback system it's unlike any I have come across before.

I have been given the definition which is as follows:-

G(t)^-1 = 2.5 x 10 ^-3 {(1-400k)}D^2+10D+400

i have to prove it with the following information.

I = Inertia of the turbine blade is = 1kg/m
c.ω= viscous Damped rotation (hysteresis) = 10 rad/s Nm
T = Torque motor= 400[e + k d^2θ/dt^2] Nm
e=(θin-θout) = angular position error in rads between the input and output shaft
k.d^2θout/dt^2= defines the additional feedback signal, accelerometer i am guessing

The definition or the answer that we are trying to work it into is in D notation, or operator D. this is where we can replace the derivatives of angular acceleration or position with D
there fore
D = dθ/dt
D^2 = d^2θ/dt^2



Homework Equations



general format of second order system

θout/θin = k/(1/ωn^2)D^2+(2ζ/ωn)D+1

this is a general solution

Zeta is a damping coeff of the system

Newton's 2nd law

∑T=∑I.α

The Attempt at a Solution



As for the work i have carried out, is that i am trying to reverse engineer the definition of the system to get the numbers, i can see that the answer is quadratic, D^2 and D and 400. but can not seem to get from the original boundary conditions to there. i have also tried to split the loops up into two. this did not work for me.

using basic control algebra i have deduced that the accelerometor should e k. d^2θ/dt^2 not
k.d^2θout/dt^2 this i believe is a mistake on my question paper.

thanks for looking. any advice would be welcomed.
