1.- CONTROL SYSTEM


Control and automations have helped the development of automated industrial processes. However, control systems have a high conceptual component that will be the subject of this teaching unit.
Let's start by defining some of the main components of such systems

1.- FLOOR Set of components and parts that have a certain objective
2.- PROCESS Set of operations that will have a certain purpose.
3.- SYSTEM Combination of components that act together to perform the control
4.- INTERRUPTIONS All unwanted signals involved adversely.
5.- INPUT OF MANDO Excitator signal of the system
6.- REFERENCE SELECTOR Item that is placed to have a reference.
7.- REFERENCE INPUT. Signal produced by the reference selector
8.- CONTROL UNIT. A unit that reacts with an active signal to produce the desired output.
9.-OUT Amount to be maintained
10.- OPEN LOOP CONTROL SYSTEM. System in which the output has no influence on the input.
11.- FEEDBACK ELEMENT. A unit that provides means to increase or decrease the output signal.
12.- ACTIVE SIGNAL. Difference between input and reference.
13.- CLOSED LOOP CONTROL SYSTEM. System in the output affects the input.

The control system regulates and controls the operation of an automation or process so that it works as intended.
We can represent an open loop control system with the following scheme:






In contrast, a closed loop control system can be represented by the following scheme:







In both system we differentiate a number of characteristic elements:

1.- SENSOR OR TRANSDUCTOR: Transforms the physical signal into an electrical signal
2.- COMPARATOR Compares the input signal with the reference signal
3.- CONTROLLER Depending on the signal that arrives decides if the actuator should be activated
4.- ACTUATOR: Changes the output so that there is no error to the input.


Control is one of the foundations of modern engineering. Its theoretical foundations involve knowledge of electronics and mathematics at a high level, since to simplify such systems are used Laplace transforms.

ACTIVITIES

1.- Classify the following systems in open loop and closed loop


Washing machine, fridge and programmed air conditioning

2.- Describe the elements that appear in each of the previous systems
