Fundamental Concepts
1. Design base
2. Specifications
Meeting with the customer’s requirements
Guarantees
Satisfy the national and international standards
3. Design transfer
Transfer of design to factory foreman i.e. drawings, processes
instructions, job flow, meeting the delivery schedule.
4. Information updating
Technical journals, R and D papers and reports, interaction in meetings,
seminars and conferences.
Major Considerations to Develop a Design are
The design should be carried out based on the given specification using
available materials economically and to achieve the following
Lower cost
Durability
Conformity with performance criteria as laid down in specifications
Limitations in Design
2. Temperature rise
Increased temperature rise under higher output weakens the insulation and
affects the life of machine.
3. Insulation
It should be able to withstand the electrical, mechanical and thermal stresses
which are produced in the machine.
Limitations in Design
4. Mechanical strength
Specially in turbo machine due to large size and high speed.
5. Efficiency
If high efficiency is the aim, the machine becomes costly, for lower efficiency
higher running cost and temperature rise with associated problems.
6. Customer’s specifications
Imposes limitations to identify criterion for best design.
7. Commutation
In DC machine output is limited because of commutation problem.
Limitations in Design
8. Power factor
Power factor imposes a limitation specially in case of 3 phase induction motor.
9. Standard specification
Specification is biggest strain on the design because both the manufacturer as
well as the consumer cannot get away from them without satisfying them.
