Answer / pradhiksha.g.babu
Sensor is an element which Recieves a signal that is to be
measured.Where as a transducer is a device or a sensor
which converts a physical data to an electrial data.

Answer / jobby c johnson
a sensor is one which measures a pysical variable. a
transducer is one which transforms the physical variable
into some other form which can be easily processed by the
remaining measurement system. if it is conerting the signal
into electrical form it is called elecrical transducers
Is This Answer Correct ? | 17 Yes | 1 No |
Answer / manish jadav
sensor can only sense the element but transuder can
convert one physical energy to another form.
so sensor is not trnsuder but transuder is sensor.
Is This Answer Correct ? | 8 Yes | 2 No |
Answer / mohamed yousuf
sensor is a device which can only sense the physical
quantity like temperature, pressure etc.
FOR PRESSURE BELLOWS IS A SENSOR
transducer is a device which sense the physical quantity
and convert that physical quantity into electrical quantity
eg.THERMOCOUPLE

Answer / faiyaz ahmad
sensor is device which is used to measure physical quantity that is called sensor.
Transducer is device convert one form of energy to another form that is call trnsducer
Is This Answer Correct ? | 1 Yes | 0 No |
Answer / arunkumar
sensor is a device.which converts any physical quantity
into electrical quantity.but the tranducer converts one
form of energy into another form of energy,it may either
electrical or any other physical quantity.

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
