Coupled Tanks
The Coupled Tanks system is a process control experiment ideal for teaching and research of control topics related to liquid level control.
The Experience Controls app is a unique interactive mobile textbook introducing students to control systems fundamentals in an engaging way, through accessible language, real-time dynamic simulations, and self-directed learning. The accompanying instructor resources allow educators to easily implement Experience Controls into any new or existing control systems course.
The Experience Controls textbook app covers the standard topics of undergraduate controls courses in a comprehensive, yet comprehensible way. The app uses clear and concise language, emphasizes concepts through examples and diagrams, tying them to industrial contexts and modern applications. The app also includes real-time dynamic simulations allowing students to interact directly with real control plant models. Furthermore, mini-lecture podcasts, problem sets, and assessment questions help students check their understanding of studied concepts as they progress through the content.
Instructors using Experience Controls in their courses have access to comprehensive resources, including lecture slides, homework, practice, and exam problem sets. These resources are designed to support modern engineering pedagogy approaches, such as flipped classroom, blended learning, and self-directed learning.
Experience Controls can be downloaded for free on the App Store and Google Play.
