Learners study the effect that pressure has on boiling temperatures. Once a liquid has reached a full boil, additional heat does not raise the liquid’s temperature; however, pressure can vary the boiling point of a liquid. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Learners examine the operation of an orifice plate flowmeter as it is used to make process control measurements. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Learners study the theory of operation for a ratio pyrometer that measures temperature. A short quiz completes the activity.

Learners view an animation showing the operation of a Vortex flowmeter that is used to measure flow in a process control system.

In this animated object, learners examine the parts of a plastics extruder. A quiz completes the activity.

Learners observe how an optical pyrometer is used to take temperature measurements without making physical contact with the object being measured.

Learners view animations showing methods of measuring the pH level of a solution using litmus paper and electronic instruments.

Learners examine dew point and the two types of humidity values, absolute and relative, along with the types of instruments used to measure them. The activity includes a video clip and a quiz.
