Introduction
Energy plays important role in achieving the desired economic growth. Energy was used for economic production. But one of the major problems concerning today is its supply since the depleting nature of the extraction of fossil resources, makes the supply reach an alarming stage. That’s why energy conservation was driven to compensate the gap between energy’s supply and demand. This study will contribute to energy conservation since the prototype design will use only enough time for the pre-heat process using TDR or Time Delay Relay. The conceptual framework is also presented in this unit as well as the significance of the study including the scope and delimitation and definition of terms and acronyms use in entire study.
Background of the Study
The company was founded in 1987 with the acquisition of Bach Engineering (annual revenues of less than $3 million). In 1989, its primary competitor in the avionics business, EECO, Inc., was acquired and the name was changed to B/E Avionics. In April 1990, the company went public on NASDAQ, raising nearly $12 million. In 1992, the asset acquisition of PTC Aerospace, Inc. (seating products) and Aircraft Products Company (galley structures and inserts) transformed B/E Aerospace into a cabin interiors provider, and the company name was changed to B/E Aerospace, Inc.
Over the next 10 years, B/E Aerospace continued to acquire cabin interior equipment companies to strengthen its position as an interiors provider. In 2001, B/E Aerospace entered the distribution business with the acquisition of M&M Aerospace. In 2008, Honeywell’s
