Question 1 1 out of 1 points

Consider the following heat exchanger control instrumentation diagram. For the


diagram, the control objective is to maintain a desired cold stream outlet
temperature. Since the cold stream exiting the exchanger is fed to a reactor, it is
critical that the stream temperature never be substantially higher than the set
point value (or the world explodes). 

Is the PROCESS gain relating the manipulated flow rate to the measured
temperature positive or negative?
