The
tank is spherical with a radius of 4 ft. the nominal flow into
and out of the tank is 30,000lbm/hr, the density of the liquid is
70lbm/ft3, and the steady-state level is 5ft. the volume of a sphere
is given by . The relation between volume and height is given by
And the flows through the valves by
r = radius of sphere, ft
V(t) = volume of liquid in tank, ft3
VT = total volume of tank, ft3
h(t) = height of liquid in tank, ft
m(t) = mass flow rate, lb/hr
Cv= valve coefficient, gpm/(psi1/2)
CV1 = 20.2 gpm/(psi1/2) and CV2 = 28.0 gpm/(psi1/2)
P(t) = pressure drop across valve, psi
Gf = specific gravity of fluid
vp(t) = valve position, a fraction of valve opening

The pressure above the liquid level is maintained constant at a

value of 50psig. Obtain the transfer functions that relate the level
of liquid in the tank to changes in valve positions of valves 1 and
2.
