Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 15P
In the Case Study of Section 1.4. an antenna azimuth angle is controlled, and its corresponding block diagram is shown in Figure 1.8(d) in the text. There, the sensor used to measure the antenna's azimuth angle is a potentiometer.
- Modify the block diagram if the sensor used to measure the antenna's angle is an accelerometer.
- Modify the block diagram if the sensor used to measure the antenna's angle is a gyroscope.

Example 1.1 Figure 1.5 shows the block diagram of a closed-loop flow control system. Identify the following elements: (a) the sensor, (b) the transducer, (c) the actuator, (d) the transmitter, (e) the controller, (f) the manipulated variable, and (g) the measured variable.
In the figure above, the (a) sensor is labeled as the pressure cell. The (b) transducer is labeled as the converter. However, there are two converters: one for converting pressure to current, and another converting current to pressure for operating the actuator. The (c) actuator is labeled as the pneumatic valve. The (d) transmitter is labeled as the line driver. The (e) controller is labeled as the PLC. The (f) manipulated variable is labeled as the pressure developed by the fluid flowing through the orifice plate. The (g) measured variable is the flow rate of the liquid.
