Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

8. Dry-Block – Display Accuracy
• Generally a one year
specification on a
spec sheet
• Internal control
sensors are designed
to be robust
• Display accuracy can
be one of the largest
contributors to the
overall uncertainty
9. Dry-Block – Stem Conduction
• May impact the ability to make a good measurement
• The probe sheath acts as heat sink
• Probe diameter / length matter in a drywell.
• (15 x probe diameter + Sensor Length) is a good rule
to follow
Heat
10. Dry-Block – Immersion and
Gradient Effects
• Immersion depth of
the UUT is critical
• Dry-blocks are
generally calibrated
by fully inserting a
reference probe
11. Dry-Block – Immersion and
Gradient Effects
• By adding a reference
probe, we can be less
concerned with the
control probe location
• The UUT and Reference
can be moved to different
depths
• Immersion depth should
still be considered
• (15 X Probe Diameter)
• Many Fluke dry-blocks
include a reference Input
12. Dry-Block – Well Contact Errors
• Fit is important
• Loose fitting probes exhibit
erratic behavior
• Wells should be 0.005”-
0.010” larger than the
diameter of the probe for
0.5” diameter probes and
smaller.
• Too snug, and the probe
may become stuck
13. Dry-Block – Stability
• Check dry-block
specifications
• Units generally come
with optimized
proportional bands
• Fine tuning the
proportional band
may help at specific
temperatures
14. Dry-Block – Axial Uniformity
• Axial Uniformity – Variation in the
temperature along the axial length of
the insert (block) within the
measurement zone
• Generally inherent to the dry-block
• The closer the sensing element is to
ambient air, the larger the
uncertainties
• Higher temperatures present larger
errors
• Look for dry-blocks with a calibrated
zone for optimal results
15. Dry-Block – Radial Uniformity
• Radial Uniformity –
Variation in the
temperature between
different wells of the
insert (block) within the
measurement zone.
• Mostly inherent to the
dry-block design
• Heater placement and
profiling is critical during
engineering of the dry-
block
16. Dry-Block – Loading
• Loading can impact
uncertainties.
• Some models have a
specification
• Units without
specifications can be
evaluated in the
field
17. Calculating Uncertainties
• RSS method is generally used to calculate
uncertainties when using a reference

19. Metrology Well Uncertainty Budget
Example 2 Without external ref.
from: Understanding the uncertainties associated with the use of Metrology Wells (lit code: 2510068)
20. Dry-Block – Odd Shaped Probes
• Custom inserts are an
option
• Micro-Baths might be a
good option to explore
21. Temperature Range Concerns
• –100 to 1200 ºC
• May need to use multiple
units
• It’s ok to switch from one
dry-block to the next Model 9190A:
–95 to 140 ºC
Model 9143:
33 to 350 ºC
Model 9150:
150 to 1200 ºC
22. Dry-Block – LIG’s
• Liquid and glass thermometers are not
recommended for use in a dry-block calibrator
• Mercury thermometers are on their way out
due to environmental concerns
23. Dry-Block – Maintenance
• Keep those wells clean, Scotch-Brite pads
and a gun cleaning kit work nicely
• Avoid dropping inserts or other heavy
objects into the well
• Avoid the use of thermo grease
• Recalibrate regularly
• Verify stability
24. RTD Calibration Example
• Three point RTD Calibration
• –95 ºC, 0 ºC, 140 ºC
• Utilize the 9190A with the “Process
Option” to measure the UUT
• Set the 9190A to each of the three
set points, generally starting with
the lowest point
• Allow for plenty of soak time at
each temperature (15 minutes)
• Record a resistance at each set point
• Utilize at tool such as TableWare to
calculate coefficients
25. Tolerance Testing
• Typical approach for
medium to low accuracy
and industrial applications
• Resistance at temperature T
is compared to defined
(table) values
• Usually, DIN, IEC-751, or
ASTM 1137 defined
equations are used
27. When the Super-DAQ is connected to a Fluke
Calibration dry-well, fluid bath, or furnace, it can
control the temperature source to calibrate up to
40 sensors automatically.
You simply program the set point temperatures
and their values, select a scan sequence, assign
a reference channel, and set the required stability
band.
The Super-DAQ monitors the temperature
source’s stability through the reference channel,
collects the data from the reference probe and
the “unit under test” (UUT) once stabilized, and
then advances to the next set-point temperature.
After you configure and start the test, you can
walk away to work on other things. The Super-
DAQ just made your day a whole lot easier!
