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.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

2. Energy Efficient Lighting
• Lighting accounts for a
significant portion of energy
use in commercial buildings
• We can significantly reduce
this energy use by
- using energy efficient
lighting
- substituting artificial light
with daylight (when
available) [this requires the
use of light sensitive
lighting control]
- minimise the use of lighting
when not required [requires
the use of occupancy
sensing controls]
4. Lighting Objectives
• The prime objectives behind the design of a lighting system
are
• the safety and comfort of occupants – the nature of a task
or process performed in a space will dictate the illuminance
level which must be provided by the lighting system (lx or
lm/m2). Tasks involving high degrees of visual acuity will
require higher lighting levels.
• the minimisation of energy consumption –involves the
development of the most energy efficient lighting systems
which is suitable for the task, this can be achieved by
selecting high efficiency equipment and making use of
available daylight.
• colour rendering or the creation of a specific atmosphere
– the colour characteristics of a lighting scheme will affects
tasks performed when the lighting system is on. Tasks which
require the accurate representation of colour require a light
with the spectral characteristics of daylight. Alternatively, to
create a “warm atmosphere” in a restaurant requires the
selection of lights skewed to the red end of the spectrum.
5. Design Stages
A lighting design has several stages. These are as follows:
• Identification of the requirements for the lighting system, illuminance levels,
colour requirements, available space, etc;
• Selection of equipment, lamps, luminaires: lighting systems consist of
numerous components, the two most important of which are: lamps, which
influence the lighting level, colour characteristics and efficiency of the lighting
system; luminaires affect the efficiency with which the light is distributed and so
affect lighting efficiency and uniformity.
• Design of the lighting system: lighting systems are designed to achieve a
reasonably uniform distribution of light on a particular plane (usually horizontal),
avoidance of glare with a minimum expenditure of energy. The most rudimentary
form of lighting design is done using a manual calculation - the lumen method.
However, lighting design is increasingly done using computers.
• System control: once a lighting system has been designed it can be controlled
in such a way as to make maximum use of available daylight, through selection
of appropriate switching mechanisms and daylight responsive controls.

required
3 40 < Ra < 60 Where colour rendering is
unimportant but distortion of colour
is unacceptable
4 60 > Ra Where marked colour distortion is
acceptable e.g. street lighting
8. Selection of Components
• Lamps are selected based on those which are compatible (lamp type, dimensions,
frequency of operation, etc) with the selected luminaire and which have the appropriate
colour-rendering index.
reflector
lamp
casing
9. Selection of Components
• Selection of components follows from the
identification of systems requirements.
• The luminaires are normally chosen first: lighting
catalogues usually describe the uses for particular
types of luminaire, these also come with different
types of reflectors for different applications e.g.
low glare reflectors for computer rooms.
• Reflectors govern the light output characteristic of
a luminaire.
10. Direct Illumination

calculate direct illuminance from

• However in reality illumination is
a combination of direct and
indirect illumination (e.g.
reflections from other surfaces)
• With reflection, accurate
illumination calculations become
exceptionally complex (requires
computer)
• However simplified methods exist
to allow us to calculate the
luminance on a working plane
Direct Illumination
15. Lumen Method
A simple means of calculating illuminance is achieved by means of the lumen
method; this is a simplified design approach to enable the designer to achieve
an even light distribution in spaces of reasonably simple geometry (i.e.
rectangular).

N
N - is the number of luminaires
required;
E - is the required illuminance (lux);
A - is the area to be lit;
n - is the number of lamps per luminaire;
F - is the lamp lumen output (lumens);
MF - is known as the maintenance factor,
which is a combination of three factors;
UF - is the utilisation and is a function of
the luminaire properties and room
geometry.
16. Utilisation Factor
• The room geometry is a
crucial factor in determining
the utilisation factor term in
the lumen equation. Several
parameters are important.
– In the lumen method of
design the room
geometry is characterised
by a room index (K)
– The reflectances (ρs) of
surfaces

17. Manufacturer’s Data
• The utilisation factor can be obtained once the surface reflectances (or effective
reflectances) are known along with the room index (K)
• each luminaire produced by a manufacturer has a lookup table for UF (UF values in
bold):
Reflectances Room Index (K)
Ceiling Wall floor 0.75 1.00 … 5.00
0.7 0.3 0.2 0.45 0.51 … 0.69
18. Maintenance Factors
• The maintenance factor is a value designed to account for the reduction in light output from
a lighting system due to: the ageing of the lamps and the accumulation of dirt and dust on
the light fittings and room surfaces. The MF is therefore time varying and is the product of 4
factors:
• Lamp lumen maintenance factor (LLMF) – a value between 0 and 1 which accounts
for the degradation of lamp output over time
• Lamp survival factor (LSF) – this accounts for the failure of lamps over time, if failed
lamps are replaced immediately this factor can be ignored.
• Luminaire maintenance factor (LMF) – a value between 0 and 1 that accounts for
dirt and dust accumulation on the luminaire. Causes LMF to decrease.
• The room surface maintenance factor (RSMF) - again this is a value between 0 and
1 and accounts for the build up of dirt on room surfaces over time. The build up of dirt
over time causes the RSMF to decrease.
The overall maintenance factor is the product of the four maintenance factors:
MF = LLMF × LLF × LMF × RSMF

21. Grids
• The output from the Lumen Method is a number of lights needed to
achieve the desired illuminance level
• These must be arranged in a grid, the spacing of which is a key parameter
in the design
axial spacing
transverse spacing
22. Spacing to Height
The utilisation factors used in the lumen method are based on a maximum spacing to
height ratio. The spacing to height ratio is as follows:
m
h
spacing
fitting
SHR
• If the lighting system arrived at has a grid spacing (fitting to fitting spacing)
greater than the maximum (SHR MAX) then the design process must be iterated
as the illuminance (lux) on the working plane will not be acceptable i.e. uneven
“patchy” illumination).
23. Spacing to Height
• Linear luminaires have two spacing to height ratios an axial (SHR AX) and
transverse ratio (SHR TR). The axial spacing to height ratio must not exceed the
maximum spacing to height ratio. The transverse spacing must not exceed the
maximum transverse spacing (SHR MAX TR). Additionally the product of the two
spacings should not exceed (SHR MAX)2.
SHR AX SHR TR ≤ (SHR MAX)2
Also check that the spacing is close to SHR NOM
(SHR AX SHR TR )0.5 = (SHR NOM) +/- 0.5
– If the spacing to height ratio is not acceptable then the lighting design
process must be iterated.
24. Daylighting
• The power consumption of a lighting system can be made responsive if the
control (switching) of the lighting system takes account of the fact that
daylight can make a contribution to the lighting of a room. A key variable in
the determination of daylight contribution to a room is the limiting depth of
the daylight into the room.
D
H
ρ s
25. Daylighting
• This depth determines the depth to which daylight can penetrate into a room and
make a contribution to lighting levels. The formula for limiting depth, D (m), is as
follows:
D is the limiting depth;
H is the height of the window header above floor level;
W is the width of the room parallel to the window;
ρs is the average surface reflectance of surfaces in the half of the room remote from
the window.
