Ideal design

In the formulation of q, it has been assumed that there is a basie level of variability assoeiated with an ideal design for a speeifie manufaeturing proeess, and that the faetors listed above ean be estimated independently and manipulated aeeording to some funetion ... 

For exterior hoods, the measurement of capture velocity provides a quick check of the ideal design conditions. However, it must be remembered that capture velocity is not a direct measure of the ability of an exterior hood to provide personnel protection. Other efficiency measures are required in order to evaluate its performance in practice. The following two efficiency measurements could be useful capture efficiency and occupational hygiene efficiency. These measures complement each other. 

The ideal design is one in which ail parts can be operated satisfactorily with water flowing with the least turbulence and aeration, and at a rate of flow within the limits that the materials involved can securely withstand. These limits, with regard to flow-rate limitations, vary with the material, as described in Section 1.2, but turbulence, aeration or presence of suspended particulates can lower these limits considerably, and designs that eliminate these two factors go a long way towards preventing impingement attack, which can be the major cause of failures in sea-water systems. (See also Sections 1.6 and 2.1.)... 

In an ideally designed experiment, only a single titration is needed to determine the solubility constant and the aqueous pKa. This is possible when the amount of sample, such as a weak base, added to solution is such that from the start of an alkalimetric titration (pH [Pg.104]

Ideal designs have a depth between 0.6 and 1.5 M (Neculita et al. 2007) to reduce short circuiting. Vertical upflow is better than downflow (Tsukamoto et al. 2004). A hydraulic retention time of at least 3-5 days is optimal (Kuyucak et al. 2006). There are no reports on systems operating for extended periods (more than 3-4 years). Failures due to plugging, short circuits, and exhaustion of organic carbon are widely reported (Neculita et al. 2007). 

How should collaborative planning and bidding processes be ideally designed within the rolling monthly planning ... 

Glycogen phosphorylase. While PLP is ideally designed to catalyze reactions of amino compounds it was surprising to find it as an essential cofactor for glycogen phosphorylase (Fig. 11-5). Tire PLP is linked as a Schiff base in the same way as in other PLP-depen-... 

The function of the decouplers is to compensate for the undesirable process interactions represented by Gpl2 and Gp21. Suppose that the process transfer functions are all known. Then the ideal design equations are... 

To achieve desired conversions predicted by ideal design equations, plug flow is required. This implies turbulent flow and higher energy costs if packing is used. Mass transfer can also be a problem. Axial diffusion or dispersion tends to decrease residence time in the reactor. High values of the length-to-diameter ratios (L/D > 100) tend to minimize this problem and also help heat transfer. 

Robust design starts with conceptual system, design, during which you define the ideal performance for your innovation, and make a list of measurable system features that are critical to the customer. You may have already done this using Performance and Perception Expectations (Technique 30). For our skin patch example, the ideal design will consistently dispense a dose of 1.0 mg/hr 0.2, regardless of patient fat content, skin condition, or other environmental factors. 

Alternatively, where the chemical properties of the regenerant allow, the concentrated bulk regenerant may be diluted directly in-line using a pumped or eductor system. Whatever system is used safety of chemical handling is paramount, and the ideal design will incorporate interlocks and alarms which stop the delivery of bulk chemical should there be dangerous excursions in chemical concentration for whatever reason. 

The internal modifications to retrofit the distillation system consider the distillation column and its internals. In this level of retrofit, some changes are made in the internals or nozzles of the main column and the side strippers. Moreover, the reboilers and pump around loops are examined and adjusted as required. Therefore, more complex modifications are required at this level that lead to higher investments. The objective of these modifications is to find out the ideal distribution of stages for each section in the main column [4]. This ideal design is applied to the existing column by modilying its internal to the niinimrim extent to reduce the costs. 

The teeth of a common blenny are sharp and comblike, ideally designed for scraping barnacles off rocks and for crunching crabs into bite-size pieces. Other small invertebrates are also important sources of food. Blennies have to be on constant watch against their own predators, which include larger fish as well as seabirds. 

Usually, patients are randomized to a particular treatment order, and all patients are eventually exposed to the same variety of treatments. Large numbers of treatment periods, assigned using a Latin square, have been reported however, the logistics and patient retention in such studies are usually difficult, and these ideal designs are likely to be successful only when treatment periods are short ideal designs are commonest for normal volunteer studies (e.g. Amin et al., 1995).
