What is the function of a proximity detector?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The function of a proximity detector.

Explanation of Solution

Proximity sensors or detectors are used to sense an object's presence without touching it directly. It stops the detector from wearing and allows it to handle hot red metals. Proximity detectors work on different principles. Many metal detectors detect only iron metals, while others could sense all types of metals.

Air enters the compressor of a regenerative gas turbine engine at 310 K and 100 kPa, where it is compressed to 900 kPa and 650 K. The regenerator has an effectiveness of 79 percent, and the air enters the turbine at 1400 K. Assume constant specific heats for air at room temperature. The properties of air at room temperature are cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·K and k = 1.4.     For a turbine efficiency of 90 percent, determine the amount of heat transfer in the regenerator.    The amount of heat transfer in the regenerator is  kJ/kg.
Hints: Find the closed loop transfer function and then plot the step response for diFerentvalues of K in MATLAB. Show step response plot for different values of K.   Auto Controls Show solutions and provide matlab code NO COPIED ANSWERS OR WILL REPORT!!!! Use own solution
