Liquid Level Measurement

Question 1
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
Which of the following represents correct relation for pressure in manometer type level measuring system?
(ϱmhm – ϱy)g
(ϱm – ϱy)g
(ϱmhm – ϱ)g
ϱmhm – ϱy
Explanation:
(ϱmhm – ϱy)g represents pressure difference in a manometer system for measuring level measuring, where ϱm is the density of manometric liquid and hm is the level of manometric liquid.
Question 2
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
Which of the following devices are used for a level to force conversion?
Load cell
Membrane
Diaphragm
Voltmeter
Explanation:
Load cells are force measuring devices, and they are used for a level to force conversion.
Question 3
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
Which of the following conversions take place in float element?
Level to force
Level to voltage
Level to displacement
None of the mentioned
Explanation:
Float elements are used for measuring the liquid level of a system. Liquid level indication is obtained using displacement of float element.
Question 4
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
What will happen if the float becomes lighter?
Density variations becomes more important
Density variations becomes less important
System becomes less efficient
None of the mentioned
Explanation:
When float made lighter, errors due to density variation decreases.
Question 5
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
For float element, uniformity of density is important.
True
False
Explanation:
While using the float element, liquid of uniform density distribution is not required. But in the displacer system, liquid with constant density distribution is important.
Question 6
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
In closed container type level measuring system, pressure at top of container is due to ______________
Vacuum pressure
Vapor pressure
Liquid pressure
Atmospheric pressure
Explanation:
Pressure at top of the container in a closed container system is the pressure above liquid level which is the pressure of vapor.
Question 7
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
Diaphragm element is used for a level to pressure conversion.
True
False
Explanation:
Diaphragm elements are used for measuring pressure and they are used for a level to pressure conversion.
Question 8
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
Which of the following represents pressure of a liquid column with constant density?
ϱgh
ϱh
ϱg
None of the mentioned
Explanation:
In a liquid column with constant density ‘ϱ’, pressure can be represented as a product of density, acceleration due to gravity and height of the liquid column.
Question 9
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
Which of the following is correct for a level to force conversions?
Liquid at constant density distribution
Liquid with different density distribution
Level difference should be gradual
Liquid should be highly viscous
Explanation:
Liquid used for a level to force conversion should have constant density distribution at all points, it enables consistent measurement of force.
Question 10
Marks : +2 | -2
Pass Ratio : 100%
In ______________ system, float whose weight greater than liquid to be displaced is used.
Inverse float system
Displacer system
Magnifying float system
None of the mentioned
Explanation:
Displacer systems are in which weight of float will be greater than the weight of liquid to be displaced.
