Title: Paint Exhaust Filtration Device [confidential] Objective: To investigate the automotive coating process at TMMC's paint booth and conceptualize design refinements to improve the filtration efficiency. I used SolidWorks and Ansys Fluent, along with post-processing scripts, to estimate the air flow patterns and applied my advanced design methods knowledge to conceptualize and propose an easy-to-implement, cost-effective design solution. The future cost benefit of this design project is estimated to be upwards of $500K per year in the form of Operation and Maintenance cost of the filtration unit. Design methodologies used: Process flow diagrams, requirements analysis, functional analysis, Morphological analysis, Pugh's decision matrix, Method 635, DELPHI, TRIZ, Design-for-safety, DFM/A. |
