Which of the following can be adjusted by human operator in a closed control loop? The thermocouple is based on the Seebeck effect which states that a/an _____ is generated when opposite junction of certain dissimilar pairs of wires are exposed to different temperatures. Dead time is a function of distance and A pneumatic controller is used to control temperature within the range 280K to 310K. The controller is adjusted so that the output pressure goes from 20kPa (valve fully open) to 105 Kpa (valve fully closed) as the measured temperature goes from 295K to 300K with the sent point held constant.
