    Processes have the characteristics of delaying and retarding changes in the values of the process variables. Process time lags generally describe these process delays and retardations. Process time lags are caused by three properties of the process. They include: Capacitance Resistance Transportation time Capacitance is the ability of a process to store energy. This energy-storing…
