Cold junction compensation is required when using a
thermocouple, (TC) to measure temperature.
A TC uses two different types of metal to produce a very
small voltage. This voltage varies as the temperature
changes. The wire used on TC must be the same material as
the TC itself, otherwise you have just created another TC.
The voltage from the second TC will cause errors in the
reading from the first TC. When you get back to the device
that is interpreting this small voltage, you will be
connecting it to the copper on the boards of that device.
As stated earlier, this will create another two TCs, one for
each wire, but if your know the temperature at the device,
you can compensate for these additional voltages. That is
where the cold, (not in the process) junction compensation
is required.

Lux meter is the measuring device to measure the lux level of lighting fixture. in industrial sector two types of lighting fixture is being used as street lighting purpose 1. HPSV (Sodium) and 2. HPMV (Mercury). HPMV having white light which is an combination of red, blue and yellow colour, while HPSV haivng Yellow lighting. in HPSV red & blue colour will be absent. during measurement of the lux level of HPSV and HPMV fixture. 1. Lux meter can measure the actual lux level of both fixture? 2. or it will show false reading for HPSV fixture light as it has only yellow light present. please give me answer

Explain the key components of control loop?
Calculate the maximum pressure drop that can be allowed to occur across a control valve, so that we can prevent cavitation / flashing from occurring. Use the following formula: Δ P allow = Km (P1 – PvapourA) where, Δ P allow - the maximum allowable differential pressure for sizing purposes, or terminal pressure drop; Km- the valve recovery coefficient from the manufacturer’s catalogue; P1 - absolute inlet fluid pressure; PvapourA - absolute fluid vapour pressure at the inlet temperature; Use Atmospheric pressure = 101.3 kPa, P1 = 1200 kPa(g), PvapourA = 4 kPa, KM = 0.72
