Abstract
In this paper, the simulink block diagram is used to solve a model consists of a set of ordinary differential
and algebraic equations to control the temperature inside a simple stirred tank heater. The flexibility of
simulink block diagram gives students a better understanding of the control systems. The simulink also
allows solution of mathematical models and easy visualization of the system variables. A polyethylene
fluidized bed reactor is considered as an industrial example and the effect of the Proportional, Integral and Derivative control policy is presented for comparison.
