Control Systems — question 3 of 10
Write a real answer. It is graded against the question's rubric, and the mastery movement is computed by the same engine the product uses. Scoring here is deterministic rather than model-written, so this page costs nothing to run and nothing is saved. In a track built from your own posting, the same rubric is graded by the model, which is what produces feedback about your reasoning rather than about coverage.
You're tuning a proportional-only (P-only) controller for a heater trying to hold 60C. No matter how much you raise the gain short of causing oscillation, the system settles a few degrees below 60C and stays there indefinitely. Why does this happen, and what single change to the controller structure would eliminate it?
