Plotting Linear System Characteristics of a Chemical

Reactor

This example shows how to plot linearization of a Simulink model at particular conditions

during simulation. The Simulink Control Design software provides blocks that you can

add to Simulink models to compute and plot linear systems during simulation. In this

example, a linear system of a continuous-stirred chemical reactor is computed and plotted

on a Bode plot as the reactor transitions through different operating points.

Chemical Reactor Model

Open the Simulink model of the chemical reactor:

open_system('scdcstr')

The reactor has three inputs and two outputs:
