Operations Management Notes & Study Guide Chapter 1 (MSWD) When people wait‚ there is a mismatch between supply and demand‚ with respect either to their timing or their quantities. By better matching supply w demand‚ a firm gains a significant competitive advantage over its rivals. Demand can vary (in either predictable or unpredictable ways) and supply is inflexible.

2) Draw the schematic flow diagram for Sunwind and all Volvo plants. (Draw at abstract level not detailed level). Provides detail of distances and demand (quantity based on 1987 forecast) flow. Ans) Demand of Sunwind is 1250/week = 1250*45 = 56250 units The following table gives us the demand of each plant yearly for the year 1985 Plant | | Torslando | Kalmar | Ghent | Total | Year | 1985 | 17050 | 4525 | 12090 | 33665 | | % | 50.65% | 13.44% | 35.91% | 100% | Year | 1987

use a batch reactor to study reaction kinetics under ideal conditions. This experiment was carried out in other to study effect of temperature on reaction rate constant and also to study the effect of the reaction rate constant in a batch stirred tank reactor its important in chemical industry because it is used to determine the effect of temperature on reaction rate constant; it is also used in chemical and process industry for solids dissolution‚ product mixing‚ chemical reaction‚ batch distillation

Batch Reactor Aim/Objective The aim of this experiment is to compare the theoretical conversion for a saponification reaction to the experimentally determined conversion in a batch reactor under constant temperature conditions. Experimental Procedure The first step was to ensure the electrical supply to the rig was turned off and that the Armfield batch reactor was empty and clean. 500mL of 0.1M sodium hydroxide solution was then added manually. The pump and stirrer were then set to

The focus of this assignment is the comparison among the three simulations (batch of 8‚ batch of 4‚ and single price flow). While watching the 3 Styro case movies provided‚ we needed to analyse and compare the differences among the three simulations. There are several elements to just in time manufacturing that are crucial to the successful implementation of this new manufacturing. These elements are; Group technology‚ Process control quality‚ JIT‚ Uniform factory load‚ Pull through production and
