What type of pressure switch is generally used to sense small changes in low pressure systems?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The type of pressure switch that is generally used to sense small variations in low-pressure system.

Explanation of Solution

Pressure switches are the switches that operate with respect to pressure variation in a system. In general, the pressure system is classified into low-pressure system and high-pressure system. The low-pressure system uses a sensitive pressure switch. The diaphragm pressure switch is classified as a sensitive pressure switch. The diaphragm can respond to small pressures.

Thus, the type of pressure switch that is generally used to sense small variations in low-pressure system is a diaphragm pressure switch.

One end of a thin uniform rod of mass m and length 31 rests against a smooth vertical wall. The other end of the rod is attached by a string of length I to a fixed point which is located a distance 21 from the wall. A horizontal force of magnitude F, is applied to the lower end of the rod as shown. Assuming the rod and the string remain in the same vertical plane perpendicular to the wall, find the angle 9 between the rod and the wall at the position of static equilibrium. Notes: This quiz is going to walk you through a sequence of steps to do this. It won't give you the answers, but it will hopefully get you to see how to approach problems like this so that you have a working reference/template in the future. This is actually a modified version of a problem from the textbook (6.3). Note that in that problem, is not actually given. It has been introduced for convenience as we move through solving the problem, and should not show up in the final answer. DO NOT DO PROBLEM 6.3. It is not…

Problem: You and your team are tasked with designing an around-coil system for an air-conditioning unit that will be installed in a hospital. The system must provide a controlled environment for the hospital's air-conditioning needs, ensuring that fresh air is brought in while exhaust air is expelled, without allowing contamination between the two airflow directions. The air-conditioning system will include two coils and two pumps (one duty pump and one standby pump) in a configuration that accommodates both exhaust and supply airflows. The system needs to comply with ASHRAE Standards, and ASME BPVC Section VIII, with attention to safety, reliability, and efficiency. The system will be used in a climate with moderate temperature variations, and its design will need to consider a range of operating and design specifications. Given data Desired Pressure in the Pipe: According to the (ASHRAE) standard for pressure drop limits. Pipe Diameter: Must comply with standard pipe diameter…
