(2-62) and (2-63), It is de- sired to derive the transfer function between reactor concentration ca and coolant temperature, Ts. Some- one has proposed the following approach: first derive the individual transfer functions between cs and T and between T and T;. Then the desired overall transfer function will be obtained from the product of the two individual transfer functions: Cas) _ CAG), GO) Bo Te) Tes) Briefly indicate your opinioa of the proposed ap- proach. Is it feasible? Is there a better approach? (Note; Itis not necessary to actually derive any transfer functions.)
