The document discusses network planning models for project scheduling. It describes two main techniques: CPM (Critical Path Method) and PERT (Program Evaluation Review Technique). Both use an "activity-on-arrow" approach where activities are drawn as arrows between nodes representing start and end times. More recently, precedence networks use an "activity-on-node" approach where activities are represented as nodes and dependencies as lines between nodes. The document provides examples of constructing precedence networks and performing forward and backward passes to determine the critical path and calculate total float for activities.

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!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

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.

Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.
2. Network Planning Models
Prof. Kanchana Devi
2
Scheduling techniques model the project’s activ ities and
their relationships as a “Network”.
In network time flows from left to right
These techniques were developed in 1950’s
There are two best techniques:
CPM (Critical Path Method)
PERT (Program Evaluation Review Technique)
Both uses an “activity-on-arrow” approach
Activities are drawn as arrows joining circles, or nodes
Which show the start and completion time of the activities
3. Precedence Network
Prof. Kanchana Devi
3
Recently used , Popular one
It uses “activity-on-node” networks
Where activities are represented as nodes
Links between the nodes are represented as
sequencing requirements.
4. Formulating a Network Model
Prof. Kanchana Devi
4
First stage:
Representing the activities and their
relationships as graph.
In “Activity-on-node”
Representing the activities as nodes(boxes) and
the lines between nodes represent the
dependencies.
5. Rules:Constructing Precedence
Network
Prof. Kanchana Devi
5
A project network should have only one start
node
A project network should have only one end
node
A node has a duration
Links normally have no duration
Precedents are the immediate preceding
activities
Time moves from left to right
A network may not contain loops
A network should not contain dangles

10. Representing Lagged Activities
Prof. Kanchana Devi
10
Undertake two activities in parallel as there
is a lag between two.
Activities are lagged because a stage in one
activity must be completed before the other
may proceed.
Show each stage as separate activity.
11. Adding Time Dimension
Prof. Kanchana Devi
11
Each activity have an estimate of its duration.
Forward pass – Earliest dates at which
activities may commence and project be
completed.
Backward pass – Latest start dates for
activities and critical path.
15. Dummy activities
15
When two paths within a network have a
common event to occur.
It is incorrect to require both hardware
specification and data structure design
17. …….
Prof. Kanchana Devi
17
Dummy activities shown as dotted lines have
a zero duration and use no resources.
Use of dummy activity where two activities
share the same start and end nodes makes it
easier to distinguish activity end points.

24. Identifying the Critical Path
Prof. Kanchana Devi
24
Any delay on the critical path will delay the
project.
Difference between earliest and latest date
for an event is known as slack.
Event with slack of zero is critical as any
delay in achieving that event will delay the
completion date of the project.
26. Activity Float
Prof. Kanchana Devi
26
As events have slack, activities possess float.
Total float is the difference between earliest
start and latest start ( or difference between
earliest finish and latest finish)
