Reduce the block diagram and
get the overall transfer function
For the given series tank:
A1 = A2 = 1ft2
A3 = 0.5ft2
R1 = R2 = 2 ft/cfm
R3 = 4 ft/cfm

The steady state feed flowrate is

5 ft3/min

a. Determine the heads of each

tank

If the input flow rate is changed,

b. determine the transfer

overall transfer function of
the process (H/Qi) and
(Qo/Qi)
c. draw the equivalent block
diagram for the two transfer
functions
