Consider the following statements regarding the advantages of closed-loop negative feedback control systems over open-loop systems:
  1. The overall reliability of the closed-loop systems is more than that of the open-loop systems.
  2. The transient response in the closed-loop system decays more quickly than in the open-loop system.
  3. In an open-loop system, closing the loop increases the overall gain of the system.
  4. In the closed-loop system, the effect of variation of component parameters on its performance is reduced.
Which of the following statements are correct?

Right Answer is:

B and D

SOLUTION

Open Loop Control System:- When the control action of a system is independent of the output, the system is said to be an open-loop control system.

Closed-loop Control System:- If the control action is somehow dependent on the output, the system is called a Closed-loop or Feedback control system.

Difference Between Open-loop and Closed-Loop Control System

Open Loop Control System Closed-Loop Control System
In this system, the controlled action is free from the output In this system, the output mainly depends on the controlled act of the system.
This control system is also called a Non-feedback control system This type of control system is also called a feedback control system
The components of this system include a controlled process and controller. The components of this kind of system include an amplifier, controlled process, controller, and feedback
The construction of this system is simple The construction of this system is complex
The accuracy of this system mainly depends on the calibration These are accurate due to feedback
The stability of these systems are stable The stability of these systems are less stable
Sensitivity high Less sensitive
The optimization in this system is not possible The optimization in this system is  possible
The transient response decay slowly The transient response decay fast
The calibration of this system is difficult The calibration of this system is easy
The disturbance of this system will be affected The disturbance of this system will  not be affected
These systems are non-linear These systems are linear
The best examples of this control system are automatic washing machine, traffic light, TV remote, immersion rod,  etc. Examples of this kind of control system are AC, control systems for temperature, pressure and speed, toaster, and refrigerator
