Door: F.J. Coenen WPA-rapportnummer: WPA-1017 Literatuurstudie Afstudeerhoogleraar: Prof.ir. J.M. van Bragt Coach : Ing. J.J.M. Schrauwen Eindhoven, januari 1991 -----------SAMENVATTING----------- SAMENVATTING Off-line kwaliteitscontrole methoden zijn kwaliteit- en kostencontrole aktiviteiten toe­ gepast tijdens de produkt- en procesontwerpfasen. Genichi Taguchi heeft in het begin van de jaren tachtig veel bijgedragen tot een accent verlegging van produkt­ inspeetie (on-line kwaliteitscontrole) naar verbetering van de intrinsieke kwaliteit van een produkt of proces in de ontwerpfase. De door hem ontwikkelde methode voor off-line kwaliteitscontrole tracht het ontwerp ongevoelig te maken voor de diverse faktoren die variatie in de prestatie van een produkt of proces veroorzaken, zonder deze faktoren te controleren. Het is een systematische methode die gebruik maakt van statistische technieken en uit de volgende drie stappen bestaat: systeemontwerp, parameterontwerp en toleratie-ontwerp. De methode wordt wereldwijd routinematig toegepast door grote bedrijven en de resultaten die ermee bereikt worden zijn opzienbarend. De betekenis van deze methode voor de Bedrijfsmechanisatie zal aangegeven wor­ den aan de hand van een beschrijving van de methode en een aantal voorbeelden. Dr. Genichi Taguchi was van 1978 tot 1982 directeur van de Japanese Academy of quality control, en ontving vier maal de Deming Prize. Van 1964 tot 1981 was hij als professor verbonden aan de Aoymagokuin University. Sinds 1981 is hij consu­ lent bij verschillende bedrijven zoals AT&T, Bell Communications Research, Ford, Xerox en andere bedrijven in Amerika, Japan, Taiwan en China. ---------------2--------------- ----------SYMBOLENLlJST ----------- SYMBOLENLlJST A kosten (verlies) voor de gebruiker om een produkt, dat de consumenten tolerantie limieten overschrijdt, te repareren of af te danken B kosten (verlies) voor de producent om een produkt, dat de consumenten tolerantie Iimieten overschrijdt, te repareren voordat het de fabriek verlaat B coefficient in de lineaire regressie vergelijking Ii0 consumententolerantie Ii producententolerantie E[..] verwachting van .. k konstante in de verliesfunktie L(y) de verliesfunktie; verlies (in geld) bij een responswaarde y L het verwachtte verlies m de gemiddelde gewenste waarde n aantal waarnemingen (metingen) SIN signaaljruis-verhouding S2 schatter voor de variantie cl variantie y de responswaarde; prestatiekarakteristiek Yi responswaarde bij waarneming i y, x gemiddelde waarde van y, x ---------------3--------------- ----------INHOUDSOPGAVE---------- INHOUDSOPGAVE SAM ENVATriNG 2 SYM BOLENLlJST 3 1.

Off-line Quality Control in Integrated Circuit Fabrication 59 --------------4-------------- ------------INLEIDING------------ HOOFDSTUK 1: INlEIDING Een produktontwikkelingscyclus bestaat uit drie elkaar overlappende fasen: pro­ duktontwerp, procesontwerp en produktie. In de produktontwerp-fase worden de produkt specificaties (materiaal specificaties, componenten, configuraties en mogelijkheden) vastgelegd. Daarna ontwerpen pro­ cesontwerpers een produktieproces, dit kan een nieuw proces of een modificatie aan een bestaand proces betreffen. De produktie-afdeling gebruikt het produktie­ proces om een zeer groot aantal produktunits te maken die binnen de specificaties vallen. Ondanks dat aile fasen in de produktontwikkelingscyclus de kwaliteit en kosten van een produkt beinvloeden, zijn het de produktontwerp- en procesontwerp-fase die de cruciale rol spelen.[1] Produkt­ Bronnen van variatie ontwikkelings­ fase Omgevings- Produkt- Fabrikage variabelen veroudering variaties Produktontwerp 0 0 0 Procesontwerp X X 0 Produktie X X 0 o maatregelen moge/ijk X maatregelen onmogelijk Tabel 1: Produktontwikkelingsfasen waarbij maatregelen tegen verschillende bronnen van variatie in het produkt ingebouwd kunnen worden. De intrinsieke kwaliteit van een produkt- of procesontwerp wordt naast de creatieve vertaling van een funktionele eis in een technische oplossing vooral bepaald door het gegeven hoe succesvol men is geweest in het minimaliseren van de variatie in produkt- en proceseigenschappen (prestatie-variatie) [2]. De mate van prestatie­ variatie - de mate waarin een produkteigenschap afwijkt van de gewenste waarde ---------------5--------------- ------------INLEIDING------------ gedurende de levensduur, onder verschillende bedrijfsomstandigheden en tussen verschillende produktunits - is dus een belangrijk aspect van de produktkwaliteit [1]. De hoofdoorzaken van de variatie in de produktprestatie zijn: omgevingsvariabelen, produktveroudering en fabrikage-imperfecties. Uit tabel 1 [1] voigt dat maatregelen tegen variaties ten gevolge van omgevingsvariabelen en produktveroudering slechts in de produktontwerp-fase ingebouwd kunnen worden. Kwaliteitscontrole methoden zijn onder te verdelen in twee groepen: - On-line kwaliteitscontrole - Off-line kwaliteitscontrole On-line kwaliteitscontrole methoden worden toegepast tijdens de produktie-fase, en zorgen ervoor dat het produktieproces statistisch onder controle blijft en fabrikage­ imperfeeties in het produkt gereduceerd worden. Ais een probleem ge'identificeerd wordt, worden mogelijke oorzaken geanalyseerd. De gebruikelijke manier om de variatie te reduceren,en de kwaliteit te verbeteren, is het elimineren van de oorza­ ken. On-line kwaliteitscontrole methoden zijn zeer kostbare methoden aangezien de kosten voor detectie en correctie van fabrikage-imperfecties snel toenemen als het produkt door de produktielijn loopt. [1] Off-line kwaliteitscontrole methoden zijn kwaliteit- en kostencontrole activiteiten toe­ gepast tijdens de produkt- en procesontwerp-fasen van de produktontwikkelings­ cyclus. Het doel van off-line kwaliteitscontrole activiteiten is het verbeteren van de maakbaarheid en betrouwbaarheid van produkten, en het verminderen van produkt­ ontwikkel- en levensduurkosten. Off-line kwaliteitscontrole methoden zoals design reviews, sensitivity analyses, prototype tests, accelerated life tests en reliability stu­ dies zijn echter niet zo grondig ontwikkeld en worden niet zo algemeen toegepast als on-line kwaliteitscontrole methoden. [1] Kwaliteit wordt steeds belangrijker, vaak belangrijker dan de prijs, bij het vergroten van het marktaandeel en de winstgevendheid van een bedrijf. het beleid van veel bedrijven blijft echter gericht op het corrigeren van problemen in plaats van het integreren van kwaliteit in het produktontwerp en produktontwikkeling. in de huidige concurrerende markten is kwaliteit aileen niet voldoende; continue kwaliteitsverbe- ---------------6---------------

  • A Mean-Line Model to Predict the Design Performance of Radial Inflow Turbines in Organic Rankine Cycles

Giovanni Manente Laureando: ANDREA PALTRINIERI ANNO ACCADEMICO 2013/2014 ii Abstract This Master Thesis contributes to the knowledge and the optimization of radial inflow turbine for the Organic Rankine Cycles application. A large amount of literature sources is analysed to understand in the better way the context in which this work is located. First of all, the ORC technology is studied, taking care of all the scientific aspects that characterize it: applications, cycle configurations and selection of the optimal working fluids. After that, the focus is pointed on the expanders, as they are the most important components of this kind of power production plants. Nevertheless. Their behaviour is not always wisely considered in an organic vision of the cycle. In fact, it has been noticed that mostly literature concerning the optimization of ORC considers the performances of the expander as a constant, omitting in this way an essential part of the optimisation process. Starting from these observations, in this Master Thesis radial inflow turbines are carefully analysed, performing a theoretical investigation of the achievable performance. Starting from a critical study of publications concerning the design of radial expanders, a theoretical model is proposed. Then, a design procedure of the geometrical and thermo dynamical characteristics of radial inflow turbine operating whit fluid R-245fa is implemented in a Matlab code.

With this method, you do not have to reset the system to zero after turning it off and then turning it on. The position information recorded on the scale is read every time. The following three types of absolute encoders are available: electrostatic capacitance model, electromagnetic induction model and model combining the electrostatic capacitance and optical methods. These encoders are widely used in a variety of measuring instruments as the length measuring system that can generate highly reliable measurement data. Advantages: 1. No count error occurs even if you move the slider or spindle extremely rapidly. 2. You do not have to reset the system to zero when turning on the system after turning it off*1.

    Chapter 4 Principles of Flight Introduction This chapter examines the fundamental physical laws governing the forces acting on an aircraft in flight, and what effect these natural laws and forces have on the performance characteristics of aircraft. To control an aircraft, be it an airplane, helicopter, glider, or balloon, the pilot must understand the principles involved and learn to use or counteract these natural forces. Structure of the Atmosphere The atmosphere is an envelope of air that surrounds the Earth and rests upon its surface. It is as much a part of the Earth as the seas or the land, but air differs from land and water as it is a mixture of gases. It has mass, weight, and indefinite shape. The atmosphere is composed of 78 percent nitrogen, 21 percent oxygen, and 1 percent other gases, such as argon or helium. Some of these elements are heavier than others. The heavier elements, such as oxygen, settle to the surface of the Earth, while the lighter elements are lifted up to the region of higher altitude. Most of the atmosphere’s oxygen is contained below 35,000 feet altitude. 4-1 Air is a Fluid the viscosity of air. However, since air is a fluid and has When most people hear the word “fluid,” they usually think viscosity properties, it resists flow around any object to of liquid.
