This document describes two types of control system situations: servo problems and regulator problems. Servo problems involve changing the set point temperature according to a prescribed function over time, while the load remains fixed. Regulator problems involve keeping the controlled variable at a fixed set point despite changes in the load. Regulator problems are common in the chemical industry and involve manipulating the input to counteract disturbances.

we assume in Servo problem that there is no change in load Ti and
only changes are made in the bath temperature according to some prescribed function of time. For this problem, the set point TR would be changed in accordance with the desired variation in bath temperature. If the variation is sufficiently slow, the bath temperature may be expected to follow the variation in TR very closely. the majority of problems that may be described as the servo type come from fields other than the chemical industry. The tracking of missiles and aircraft are well-known examples of the servo-type problem.
Regulator Problem:
The other situation(apart from servo type) will be referred to as
the regulator problem. In regulator problem , the desired value TR is to remain fixed, and the purpose of the control system is to maintain the controlled variable at TR in spite of changes in load Ti. Regulator problem, is all about Manipulating the system input to counteract the effects of disturbances. This problem is very common in the chemical industry. These control systems are of the regulator type. The response to a change in load is called (regulator problem).
