what is difference between E/P positioner and I/P positioner.
Why E/P fixed in below actuator and why I/P fixed in other place

An E/P transducer is a voltage to position transducer, so
its input signal from the control system is a voltage
signal, like 0-5Vdc. Its output is a proportional pneumatic
signal.
An I/P transducer is a current to position transducer, so
its input signal from the control system is a current
signal, like 4-20mA. Its output is a proportional
pneumatic signal.
E/P and I/P are not positioners and are not called
positioners because each is a transducer that converts an
input signal to a proportional pneumatic signal.
A positioner is a much more than a transducer; a positioner
is a controller.
A positioner senses valve position and regulates its
pneumatic output to control the valve position to the
setpoint defined by the input signal.
Where an E/P or an I/P is mounted is a matter of opinion,
plant standard or convenience, it is not dependent on its
function.
A positioner must receive a valve position feedback signal,
so a positioner must be mounted so mechanical linkage can
sense valve position or when mounted remotely from the valve
(like in high ambient temperature applications) a remote
position sensor is used to feed a signal to the positioner.

Calculate the maximum pressure drop that can be allowed to occur across a control valve, so that we can prevent cavitation / flashing from occurring. Use the following formula: Δ P allow = Km (P1 – PvapourA) where, Δ P allow - the maximum allowable differential pressure for sizing purposes, or terminal pressure drop; Km- the valve recovery coefficient from the manufacturer’s catalogue; P1 - absolute inlet fluid pressure; PvapourA - absolute fluid vapour pressure at the inlet temperature; Use Atmospheric pressure = 101.3 kPa, P1 = 1200 kPa(g), PvapourA = 4 kPa, KM = 0.72
