| Referring to the illustrated impulse steam trap, what would be the effect of threading the control cylinder "E" downward further into the trap body? GS-0002 |
| A) The clearance between the reverse taper of the control cylinder's inner wall and the periphery of the valve disk will decrease, and as a result, the pressure drop across the periphery of the valve disk will decrease. |
| B) The clearance between the reverse taper of the control cylinder's inner wall and the periphery of the valve disk will decrease, and as a result, the pressure drop across the periphery of the valve disk will increase. |
| C) The clearance between the reverse taper of the control cylinder's inner wall and the periphery of the valve disk will increase, and as a result, the pressure drop across the periphery of the valve disk will increase. |
| D) The clearance between the reverse taper of the control cylinder's inner wall and the periphery of the valve disk will increase, and as a result, the pressure drop across the periphery of the valve disk will decrease. |
