Expert-verifiedFeedback System with Pooling Delay. Many physical and biological systems involve time delays. A pure time delay has its output the same as its input but shifted in time. A more common type of delay is pooling delay. An example of such a feedback system is shown in Figure 5.3 on page 251. Here the level of fluid in tank B determines the rate at which fluid enters tank A. Suppose this rate is given by where and V are positive constants and is the volume of fluid in tank B at time t.
b. Find a general solution for the system in part (a) when and .
c. Using the general solution obtained in part (b), what can be said about the volume of fluid in each of the tanks as ?
Elimination Procedure for 2 x 2 Systems:
To find a general solution for the system
Where and L4 are polynomials in :
Vieta’s formulas for finding roots:
For function y(t) to be bounded when we need for both roots of the
the auxiliary equation to be non-positive if they are reals and, if they are complex, then the real part has to be non-positive. In other words,
Given that, the volume of fluid in tank A is and the volume of fluid in tank B is :
R1 is the rate at which the fluid enters tank A.
R2 is the rate at which the fluid exits tank A and enters tank B.
R3 is the rate at which the fluid exits tank B.
And .
Given: .
Then,
The above equations can be rewritten as,

Given, and .
Referring to part (a):
Rewrite the system in operator form:
Substitute the values in equations (1) and (2).
Multiply D on equation (3) and multiply 5 on equation (4). Then, subtract them together.
Since the auxiliary equation to the corresponding homogeneous equation is:
.
Then,
So, the roots are and .
Then, the general solution of y is
Let us assume that,
Substitute equation (7) in equation (5).
Substitute the value of C in equation (7).
So,
Now substitute equation (8) in equation (3).
Hence,
To find: and .
Referring to part (b):
Implement the limits on equations (8) and (9).
