Chapter 1, Problem 1.10E
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The manipulated variable in a thermostat controlled home heating system is to be identified.

Concept introduction:

A control system is a system which regulates or monitors the behavior or working of other devices/systems using control loops. It can be used to control single device or large industrial processes. There are two types of control system which can be used to control the processes. These are feedback control system and feedforward control system.

Controlled variables (CVs) are the process variables which can be controlled, and its desired value is known as the set point.

Manipulated variables (MVs) are the process variables which are adjusted by the controller to keep its value close to the set point.

Disturbance variables (DVs) are the process variable which affects the controlled variables, but they cannot be manipulated and are associated with any changes in the operating environment of the ongoing process.

Chemical Engineering Use the psychrometric chart and demonstrate the linear interpolation method to obtain -0.52 KJ/KgDA.  This is the enthalpy deviation.   The exercise is uploaded below.
Chemical Engineering  Use the psychrometric chart. The remaining curves on the psychrometric chart are almost vertical and convex to the left, with labeled values (on Figure 8.4-1) of 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and so on. (The units of these numbers arekJ/kg DA). Thesecurves are usedto determine theenthalpyof humid air that is not saturated. The procedure is as follows: (a) locate the point on the chart corresponding to air at its specified condition; (b) interpolate to estimate the enthalpy deviation at this point; (c) follow the constant wet-bulb temperature line to the enthalpy scale above the saturation curve, read the value on that scale, and add the enthalpy deviation to it. Also, you will see the exercise on the piece of paper.
