What is another term for an actuator of a control system?

I believe it is D, System Controller.
It is responsible for opening things in the body like a valve. I also did my research and had a little help on this.

ikadub [295]

Answer:

a) Decrease

b) Decrease

c) Decrease

d) Decrease

Explanation:

Ti= 200°F ,

Te = 170°F

Area of heat exchanger = $\pi *(2 )* 10$ = 20π

A) when The flow rate of the cooling fluid is increased

Temperature of process stream will decrease and this is because the tube side heat transfer coefficient will increase and this will increase the rate of heat transfer thereby decreasing the temperature of the process stream.

B) when There are 200 tubes that are 1.0-in. OD and 20.0ft long

The temperature of the process stream will decrease and this is because the heat transfer coefficient will increase likewise the heat transfer rate

C) When The number of shell passes is doubled

This will cause an increase in the overall length of the shell, an increase in velocity of constant volumetric flowrate, hence the Temperature of the process steam will decrease as well

D) When The tube material is changed to copper.

Due to the high thermal conductivity of copper when compared to steel , switching to copper will cause a decrease in the temperature of the process steam

BabaBlast [244]

A power washer is being used to clean the siding of a house. Water at the rate of 0.1 kg/s enters at 20°c and 1 atm, with the velocity 0.2m/s. The jet of water exits at 23°c, 1 atm with a velocity 20m/s at an elevation of 5m. At steady state, the magnitude of the heat transfer rate from power unit to the surroundings is 10% of the power input. Determine the power input to the motor in kW.

Answer:

Net power of 1.2 KW is being extracted

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass flow rate; m' = 0.1kg/s

Inlet temperature; T1 = 20°C = 293K

Inlet pressure; P1 = 1 atm = 10^(5) pa

Inlet velocity; v1 = 0.2 m/s

Exit Pressure; P2 = 1 atm = 10^(5) pa

Exit Temperature; T2 = 1 atm = 296K

Exit velocity; V2 = 20m/s

Change in elevation; h = Z2 - Z1 = 5m

We are told that the magnitude of the heat transfer rate from the power unit to the surroundings is 10% of the power input.

Thus;

Q = -0.1W

From Bernoulli equation;

Q - W = ∆Potential energy + ∆Kinetic energy + ∆Pressure energy

Where;

∆Potential energy = mg(z2 - z1)

∆Kinetic energy = ½m(v2² - v1²)

∆Pressure energy = mc_p(T2 - T1)

Thus;

-0.1W - W = [m'g(z2 - z1)] + [½m'(v2² - v1²)] + [m'c_p(T2 - T1)]

Where C_p is specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/Kg.k

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

-1.1W = (0.1 × 9.81 × 5) + (½ × 0.1(20² - 0.2²)) + (0.1 × 4200 × (296 - 293))

-1.1W = 4.905 + 19.998 + 1260

-1.1W = 1284.903

W = -1284.903/1.1

W ≈ -1168 J/s ≈ -1.2 KW

The negative sign means that work is extracted from the system.
