FPD470 Wedge Flow Meter Differential Pressure – Primary Flow Element Operating instruction OI/FPD470–EN Rev. A FPD470 Wedge flow meter Differential pressure – primary flow element Measurement made easy Introduction WEDGETM Flow Elements utilize V-shaped restrictions to produce a square root relationship between differential pressure and volumetric flow. Elements are designed for either clean or dirty service and are offered in various materials, pipe sizes, and pressure ratings. The differential pressure is measured by a differential pressure transmitter. Various process connections on the WEDGE are provided for either pneumatic or electronic transmitters or other differential pressure sensing devices. Wedge meters can be flow calibrated and supplied with a factory calibration report, this includes calculations for the user’s process when such data is supplied. The differential pressure measurement is used to calculate flow using a standard wedge flow equation.

The only difference is that the formulas are more complex. 13. FURTHER RULES In the previous section, we added the rule ~∨O to our list of inference rules. Although it is not strictly required, it does make a number of derivations much easier. In the present section, for the sake of symmetry, we add corresponding rules for the remaining two-place connectives; specifically, we add ~&O, ~→O, and ~↔O. That way, we have a rule for handling any negated molecular formula. Also, we add one more rule that is sometimes useful, the Rule of Repetition. The additional negation rules are given as follows. Tilde-Ampersand-Out (~&O) ~(d & e) ––––––––– d → ~e Tilde-Arrow-Out (~→O) ~(d → f) –––––––––– d & ~f 182 Hardegree, Symbolic Logic Tilde-Double-Arrow-Out (~±O) ~(d ± e) –––––––––– ~d ± e The reader is urged to verify that these are all valid argument forms of sentential logic. There are other valid forms that could serve equally well as the rules in question. The choice is to a certain arbitrary. The advantage of the particular choice becomes more apparent in a later chapter on predicate logic.

  • Introducing Sentential Logic (SL) Part I – Syntax
    Introducing Sentential Logic (SL) Part I – Syntax 1. As Aristotle noted long ago, some entailments in natural language seem to hold by dint of their “logical” form. Consider, for instance, the example of Aristotle’s being a logician above, as opposed to the “material” entailment considering the relative locations of Las Vegas and Pittsburgh. Such logical entailment provides the basic motivation for formal logic. So-called “formal” or “symbolic” logic is meant in part to provide a (perhaps idealized) model of this phenomenon. In formal logic, we develop an artificial but highly regimented language, with an eye perhaps of understanding natural language devices as approximating various operations within that formal language. 2. We’ll begin with a formal language that is commonly called either Sentential Logic (SL) or, more high- falutinly, “the propositional calculus.” You’re probably already quite familiar with it from an earlier logic course. SL is composed of Roman capital letters (and subscripted capital letters), various operators (or functors), and left and right parentheses. The standard operators for SL include the tilde (~), the ampersand (&), the wedge (v), and the arrow (→). Other operators, such as the double arrow, the stroke and the dagger, can easily be added as the need arises. The Syntax of S.L 3. A syntax for a language specifies how to construct meaningful expressions within that language. For purely formal languages such as SL, we can understand such expressions as well-formed formulas (wffs). The syntax of SL is recursive. That means that we start with basic (or atomic) wffs, and then specify how to build up more complex wffs from them.

  • A Package for Logical Symbols
    A Package for Logical Symbols Rett Bull October 10, 2009 The package logicsym supplies logical symbols for classes like Pomona Col- lege's Math 123, CS 80, and CS 81. Known conflicts: the logicsym package redefines existing symbols \mp (minus- plus) and \Re. 1 Options and Customization 1.1 Compatiblity This version introduces a number of name changes|for consistency. Use the option oldnames to add the previous names. 1.2 Truth Constants There are three options for truth constants: topbottom, tfletters, and tfwords. The commands \False and \True may be used in any mode. The default font for words and letters is italic, more specifically \mathit, but it may be changed by redefining \Truthconstantfont. The default is topbottom. Only one of the three options may be used. 1.3 Conjunction The options for conjunction are wedge and ampersand. The default is wedge. 1.4 Implication The choices for arrows are singlearrows or doublearrows. The default is doublearrows. The \if and only if" connective matches the arrow style but can be replaced with ≡ by specifying the option equivalence. 1.5 Turnstiles There is no option for turnstiles, but their size (relative to other symbols) may be adjusted by redefining \TurnstileScale. The default is 1.0. 1 1.6 Crossing Out In natural deduction inferences, we often want to show that an assumption has been discharged by crossing it out. A slash often works well for single letters, but it is too narrow for longer formulas. We provide a macro \Crossbox to make a wide slash, but unfortunately it is difficult to draw a simple diagonal across a TEX box.

(1) nwedge is the conjunction symbol ^ (2) nvee is the disjunction symbol _ (3) nneg is the negation symbol : (4) nperp is the contradiction symbol ? (5) nra is the universal quantifier ! (6) nlra is the universal quantifier $ (7) nforall is the universal quantifier 8 (8) nexists is the existential quantifier 9 Chapter 1 Q: On exercise 1.7 I left the 9th sentence slot open. When I submitted to GradeGrinder it stars it and says \Your ninth sentence slot is empty". Is this telling me that I should be able to construct a sentence that would get the requested result of exactly 3 TRUEs? A: No it is not. It is simply saying that you left it empty. I believe it should be empty. Chapter 2 =Elim The first two Fitch Proof rules that you are going to learn are the \identity elimination" and \identity introduction". =Elim is used for substitution. Up until Chapter 6, you need to know that when you have a sentence a = b, then you may substitute the object b for a in any sentence where a is defined. For these first few chapters you are not allowed to plug in a into a sentence involving b. To be perfectly honest, this is done so that you learn to use =Intro. All of the rules come in pairs (Elim and Intro) and so this is there to be consistent. See Page 55 of the text, for more information.

The blind prisoner does not have a red hat. Therefore the blind prisoner has a white hat. and If Mr. Robinson is the brakeman’s next-door neighbor, then Mr. Robinson lives halfway between Detroit and Chicago. Mr. Robinson does not live halfway between Detroit and Chicago. Therefore Mr. Robinson is not the brakeman’s next-door neighbor. Every argument of this general type contains at least one compound statement. In studying such arguments we divide all statements into two general categories, simple and compound. A simple statement does not contain any other state- ment as a component. For example, “Charlie’s neat” is a simple statement. A compound statement does contain another statement as a component. For exam- ple, “Charlie’s neat and Charlie’s sweet” is a compound statement, because it contains two simple statements as components. Of course, the components of a compound statement may themselves be compound.* *In formulating definitions and principles in logic, one must be very precise. What appears simple often proves more complicated than had been supposed. The notion of a “component of a statement” is a good illustration of this need for caution. One might suppose that a component of a statement is simply a part of a statement that is itself a statement.

  • Truth-Functional Propositional Logic
    5 Truth-Functional Propositional Logic 1. INTRODUCTION * In this chapter, and the remaining chapter 6, we turn from the vista of logic as a whole and concentrate solely on the Logic of Unanalyzed Propositions. Even then, our focus is a limited one. We say nothing more about the method of inference and concern ourselves mainly with how the method of analysis can lead to knowledge of logical truth. The present chapter takes a closer look at the truth-functional fragment of propositional logic. We try to show: (1) how the truth-functional concepts of negation, conjunction, disjunction, material conditionality, and material biconditionality may be expressed in English as well as in symbols; (2) how these concepts may be explicated in terms of the possible worlds in which they have application; and (3) how the modal attributes of propositions expressed by compound truth-functional sentences may be ascertained by considering worlds-diagrams, truth-tables, and other related methods. In effect, we try to make good our claim that modal concepts are indispensable for an understanding of logic as a whole, including those truth-functional parts within which they seemingly do not feature. 2. TRUTH-FUNCTIONAL OPERATORS The expressions "not", "and", "or", "if... then . ", and "if and only if may be said to be sentential operators just insofar as each may be used in ordinary language and logic alike to 'operate' on a sentence or sentences in such a way as to form compound sentences. The sentences on which such operators operate are called the arguments of those operators. When such an operator operates on a single argument (i.e., when it operates on a single sentence, whether simple or compound), to form a more complex one, we shall say that it is a monadic operator.
