(a) A ratio control scheme is to be used to maintain a stoichiometric ratio of Haand N2 as the feed to an
ammonia synthesis reactor. Individual flow controllers will be used for both the H2 and N2 streams.
Using the information given below, do the following:
a) Draw a schematic diagram for the ratio control scheme.
b) Specify the appropriate gain for the ratio station, Ke.
Available Information:
() The electronic flow transmitters have built-in square root extractors. The spans of the flow
transmitters are 30 Umin for H2 and 15 L/min for N2.
(ü) The control valves have pneumatic actuators.
(ii) Each required current-to-pressure (WP) transducer has a gain of 0.75 psilmA.
(iv) The ratio station is an electronic instrument with 4-20 mA input and output signals.
(b) For the given Fig.1 Answer the following:

(i) Obtain G for the feedforward-feedback system shown in below Fig.1 so that C does not
change when a disturbance in C; occurs. Would there be any problem in implementing
this G?
(ii) If Gr is to be a lead-lag transfer function T,s+1 Determine T and T; by the Foxboro rule.
T,s+l
Howdo you determine whether lead or lag is to predominate? Use t, =1.0 in the Foxboro
rule.

(a) Consider a refinery blending and production problem which ilustrates a scheduling application in the
chemical process industries. Fig. 2 demonstrate a schematic diagram of feedstocks and products for
the refinery (costs and selling price). Table 1 rendered the information pertaining to the expected
yields f the twO types of crude oils when processed by the refinery. It is also noted that products
distribution from the refinery is guite different for the two crude oils. Formulate the optimization
problem with the limitations on the established markets for the various products in terms of the allowed
maximum daily production and their processing costs.
