    Evaluation

    For a process to be adequately controlled and manipulated, the variable of interest in the process (e.g. Temperature, Pressure or Flow) often called the Process Variable (PV) needs to be measured by a sensor which converts the measurement into a suitable signal format (4 – 20mA or digital) and then transmit it to a controller which makes the control decision and finally acts on a final control element in the control loop. What does this signal transmission is referred to as a transmitter. The schematic

    Thermodynamics

    1. A vacuum gauge indicates that the pressure of air in a rigid vessel is 0.2 bar (vacuum). The pressure of the atmosphere is equivalent to 750 mm column of mercury. Given: Density of mercury is 13.59 g/cm3. i. Sketch the system with appropriate labels. ii. Determine the atmospheric air pressure, in bar. iii. Calculate the absolute pressure of the air in the vessel, in kPa. (Ans: 1 bar; 80 kPa) 2. A gas is contained in a vertical, frictionless piston-cylinder

    Motivation Concepts Analysis

    CheckPoint: Persuasion & Conformity Scenario The student’s paper that I selected believes that Donnie is more than likely to be persuaded by unsafe behavior and peer pressures over John. The student made this assumption because Donnie is a bookworm and has a hard time socializing and expressing himself. This can show that Donnie has low self-esteem, which leads to studies revealing people with this issue are more than likely going to be peer pressured (Nevid & Rathus, 2005). This is for

    DESCRIPTION OF MECHANISM Compressor are similar to pumps both increase the pressure on a fluid and both can transport the fluid through a pipe. Parts of Compressor Electric Motor The electric motor powers the compressor pump. The motor drive a pulley and two belts, which transfer power from the motor to the pump pistons via flywheel and a crank shaft. The flywheel fan helps cool the compressor pump. Compressor Pump The pump compresses the air and discharges it into the receiver. Two-stage

    Regulation of Air Pressure Experiment

    Replication of Air pressure experiment Find an air filled ball that has an air input that will allow you to increase or decrease the air pressure. I used a rubber basketball but a leather basketball would have also worked. The smaller the ball, the harder it is going to be to see the differences in bounce height. Use an air pump and an air pressure gauge to put air in the ball and to measure the air pressure in the ball. Make sure you adjust the air pressure between bounces and measure and
