Explain what is meant by sequential control and illustrate your answer by an example.
Explain the significance of the following information given in the specification of transducers
A piezoelectric accelerometer
Non-linearity: ±0.5% of full range
Thermocouple:
Sensitivity nickel chromium -nickel aluminium thermocouple
0.039 mV/°C when the cold junction is at O°C..
An inverting amplifier has an input resistance of 2 k ohm. Determine the feedback resistance needed to give a voltage gain of 100.
Explain the working and draw the symbols for a pressure relief valve, and a 2/2 valve which has actuators of a push-button and a spring.
Describe the principle of working of pilot operated valve.
A force of 400 N is required to open a process control valve. What area of diaphragm will be needed with a diaphragm actuator to open the valve with a control gauge pressure of 70 kPa
A hydraulic cylinder is to be used to move a work-piece in a manufacturing operation through a distance of 50mm in 10 sec. A force of 10 kN is required to move the work-piece.
