Answers:

1. First Method that I will propose is Ratio Control. Because you need specification for amount of
substance being blend, also you need to check the flow rate of two substance mixing together
for maintaining good blend. This process requires no sensor because you already know the
amount needed of substance to produce good mixture

Second Method is using Current to Pressure transducer. By turning pressure into electrical signal
will set a point for feedback controller for flow rate. This will control the flow rate of two
substance mixing together electronically so that the system is accurate than first proposed
control.

2. a. Pressure Surges occurs sudden and quick closure of valves of a loaded devices.

b. The 1st Valve is for the input of steam, 2nd is the output condensed chlorine, 3rd is output
vaporized chlorine and the 4th is input of unprocessed Liquid Chlorine.

In order the liquid chlorine to become a vapor, condensation is required. If 1st valve fail to open
liquid chloride will be steady at liquid state. If the 2nd valve fail to close the condensed chlorine
will escape to the atmosphere. If 3rd Valve is fail to open the tank will overflow. And if the 4th
valve is fail to open there will be no process at all.

c. To improve the liquid system, you should control the flow rate by adjusting the valve based on
your calculations.

3. System Design:
4. a. Q=AV

where Q = Flow rate

A = Area of the pipe
` V = Velocity of Fluid

QT = Q1 + Q 2

Where QT = Total Flow rate

Q1 = Flow rate of Hot side
Q2 = Flow rate of Cold side
Assuming temperature, velocity and diameter of pipe is constant;

QT = 5 gpm
Q1 = 0.5 Q2

Q1 = 2.5 gpm
Q2 = 2.5 gpm

b. Assuming velocity is variable, and required total flow rate is 5 gpm

let d1 = d2= 30 mm

1 gpm = 0.00223 ft3/s

0.005575 3
= (0.0984)2 (1 )
4
0.733
1 = 2 =

5. By Checking the quality of raw materials need, the operation of manufacturing plant will be
profitable, because it is the starting point of the process, for example the raw material for
laptop computers is weak plastic, and then use it because it is cheaper than other material, then
it fails in quality control, therefore the laptop become junk. And having a junk means loss of
income.
6. Overflow is cause of accident .Even though the sensors are malfunctioning, we shall manually
check the level of measurements because there are some time that system occur errors. As long
as possible sensors and other electronic devices uses for operation should be calibrate daily
before the operation.
