1. Перепишите предложения и определите функцию глагола to have, to be. Переведите предложения.

1. Valves are critical in optimizing efficiency, and they are often the final control element in the operation of a power plant.

2. Although the basic technology for most valves and actuators has remained unchanged, specialists develop innovative applications and design modifications

3. However, major improvements in electric control-valve actuator technology are helping power producers lower costs and boost efficiency.

4. Hydraulic actuators, which use pressurized hydraulic fluid to open and close valves, are more popular because of their ability to achieve high torque.

5. For years Young & Franklin has been developing electromechanically actuated gas control valves specifically for industrial gas turbines.

2. Выберите требуемую форму глагола и переведите предложения.

1. If a power plant (works, worked) efficiently, valves and actuators (must operate, operated) at higher pressures, temperatures and frequency.

2. These improvements can reduce costs by (supported, supporting) the control valve's ability to throttle accurately, thereby (provided, providing) better performance for high-pressure steam bypass, turbine bypass and other critical power plant operations.

3. If the power plant (would use, used) pneumatic valve actuators, they (were powered, would be powered) with air or gas.

4. The (more common, most common) type of hydraulic actuator uses pistons (who, which) slide up and down within a cylinder (containing, to contain) hydraulic oil and a spring.
