Points to be noted
1. The cross sectional area A , is a measure of its
capacitance to store mass. Thus larger the value of
A, the larger the storage capacity.
2. Since = so we can say that

Points to be noted
1. The above equation clearly demonstrates that this
is a first order lag system
2. The system possesses capacity to store thermal
energy and a resistance to the flow of heat
characterized by U.

Consider two systems (System 1 and system 2) of liquid storage ( as shown in Example
10.1) of different two areas A1 and A2 resp. and different two resistances R1 and R2 resp.
such that A1 > A2, R2>R1 and A1RI =A2R2 . This means that gain of systems 2 is greater
than system 1 provided time constants are same in both system. So the System 2 initial
response is same to that of system 1 but as time goes on, the system 2 output response
caused due to change in same input will rise to higher steady state value as compare to
that of system 1 as shown in this Plot.
