Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) are more reliable and  accurate than thermocouples. They have a sensing element which often  contains a grid of conductive film or a coil of wire. Materials to be used as sensing elements and wire materials for RTDs to select the suitable detector  The materials to […]

  In order to select the suitable detector, what materials should be used as sensing elements and wire materials for RTDs? When talking about RTDs there are three main types, Thin-film  elements, Wire-wound elements, and Coiled elements. Thin film elements  are made of very thin material, often platinum, on a […]

  Abstract  A brief description of the experiment. The abstract should not exceed four or five sentences. Introduction In your own words, explain the reason for performing the experiment and give a concise summary of the theory involved, including any mathematical detail relevant to later discussion in the report.  Conclusions  […]

topic 1: Describe three aggregate functions and provide a business example where you would want to use each function. topic 2: Explain the importance of Reports to an organization. Who typically reads the reports, and what use is made of reports? Who is responsible for delivering the content of reports? […]

ABC Incorporated is a small start-up company. The company decided to dedicate a small portion of its marketing budget and a small team of employees to build a presence on the Internet. The purpose of the website will be to offer customers information about the company and to reach new […]

   You work for Angstrom incorporated; they have a thermal control  system that has encountered a failure of a mercury-filled bulb sensing  element. There is a need to get the system up and running, but modern  regulations restrict the use of mercury sensors. Your task is to  research and persuade […]

What might be some examples of situations why we might select one mode over another?  What are some of the factors that we should consider when selecting a control mode?

  The on-off control method is the least expensive  closed loop system to use due to its simplicity. The on-off control  method does however tend to cause more wear on its equipment due to the  excessive amount of on-off cycles. It is also the hardest control system  to maintain a […]

  RTDs are more accurate and reliable than thermocouples. You should  also understand that RTD's sensing element is a resistor that changes  resistance with temperature and it is connected to the control circuitry  through a wire. Answer the following: In order to select the suitable detector, what materials should be […]

  In this week of Industrial Automated Systems we discuss process  controls that utilize variables and controlled set-points. The following  topics are part of this system: On-Off Control mode is as the name implies in that the process  control is automated to turn a system on and off. This is […]
