AME 10 Q5

1 / 5

What is a potential issue with the mechanical components of the control valves in a split range system?

D) The valves may require constant manual adjustment to function properly.

B) The valves may become stuck or slow to respond, causing poor temperature control.

C) The valves may operate too quickly, resulting in rapid temperature changes.

A) The valves may be too efficient, leading to unnecessary energy savings.

2 / 5

What is a common issue that can arise in a split range control system when the control valves are not properly calibrated?

C) The system may cycle between heating and cooling modes too slowly.

A) The system may operate at a constant temperature, regardless of the engine load.

D) The system will automatically adjust to the correct settings without any manual intervention.

B) Both control valves may remain partially open, leading to inefficient cooling.

3 / 5

How can incorrect tuning of the PID controller in a split range control system affect the jacket water temperature control?

A) The system may perfectly regulate the temperature without any further adjustments.

C) The system will automatically adjust to the ideal settings without any issues.

D) The system may completely bypass the use of one control valve.

B) The system may experience excessive oscillation, leading to temperature instability.

4 / 5

What could happen if the split range control system's sensors fail to provide accurate temperature readings?

A) The system will operate normally, as it can compensate for sensor inaccuracies.

C) The system may shut down entirely to prevent damage to the engine.

B) The system may overheat the engine due to a lack of proper cooling.

D) The system will automatically switch to a backup control method.

5 / 5

How could an improper range setting in a split range control system affect the engine cooling process?

D) The system may maintain a constant temperature, regardless of engine load.

C) The system may automatically recalibrate itself without any manual input.

B) The system may struggle to transition smoothly between heating and cooling modes.

A) The system may allow the temperature to drift slightly, but remain within safe limits.
