Q. In a cascade control system, the closed loop transfer function of the inner loop may be assumed to have a single time-constant T1 . Similarly, the closed loop transfer function of the outer loop may be assumed to have a single time-constant T2. The desired relationship between T1 and T2 in a well-designed control […]
