A control system is as shown in the given figure. The maximum value of gain K for which the system is stable is—
-
- √ 3
- 3
- 4
- 5
- √ 3
Correct Option: D
= | ||
R(s) | 1 + (1/s3 + 3s2 + 2s + 1)× 1 |
and C.E = 1 + G(s) H(s)
⇒ + 1 | . 1 = 0 | |
s3 + 3s2 + 2s + 1 |
⇒ s3 + 3s2 + 2s + 1 K = 0
The Hurwitz criterion can be given as
s3 1 2
s2 3 1 + K
s3 6 – (1 + K)/3 0
s0 1 + K 0
for the system to be stable
≥ 0 | |
3 |
and
1 + K ≥ 0
6 ≥ 1 + K
or
1 + K ≤ 6
or
K ≤ 5
Kmax = 5
