General Questions - Flashcards (1)




Here it is another initiative by epc-school. Flashcards are displayed below. Try answer these in comment section. Correct answers will be displayed tomorrow's blog-

Q1: Most commonly used algorithm for digitally executing PID control; the result of taking the difference between two successive iterations of the position algorithm.

Q2: Device for detecting the presence or absence of bulk solids.

Q3: Refers to the feedback controller in the outer loop whose output sets the setpoint for the inner loop controller.

Q4: Device that measures the relationship between electrical resistance and temperature.

Q5: System in which only a number of states are allowed. In binary digital, only two states (0 and 1) are allowed. In the decimal system, only ten states (0 through 9) are allowed.

Q6: Design in which a guide bushing or bushings are fitted into the body, bonnet, and/or bottom flange so as to guide a plug's post.
