  2. Overall equipment effectiveness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overall_equipment...

    Performance: speed at which the Work Center runs as a percentage of its designed speed. Quality: Good Units produced as a percentage of the Total Units Started. It is commonly referred to as the first pass yield (FPY). To calculate the Total Effective Equipment Performance(TEEP), the OEE is multiplied by a fourth component:

  3. Exergy efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exergy_efficiency

    In thermal engineering, exergy efficiency (also known as the second-law efficiency or rational efficiency) computes the effectiveness of a system relative to its performance in reversible conditions. It is defined as the ratio of the thermal efficiency of an actual system compared to an idealized or reversible version of the system for heat ...

  4. Thermal efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_efficiency

    For example, a typical gasoline automobile engine operates at around 25% efficiency, and a large coal-fuelled electrical generating plant peaks at about 46%. However, advances in Formula 1 motorsport regulations have pushed teams to develop highly efficient power units which peak around 45–50% thermal efficiency.

  5. Coefficient of performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_performance

    The coefficient of performance or COP (sometimes CP or CoP) of a heat pump, refrigerator or air conditioning system is a ratio of useful heating or cooling provided to work (energy) required. [1] [2] Higher COPs equate to higher efficiency, lower energy (power) consumption and thus lower operating costs. The COP is used in thermodynamics.

  6. Euler's pump and turbine equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_pump_and_turbine...

    These equations govern the power, efficiencies and other factors that contribute to the design of turbomachines. With the help of these equations the head developed by a pump and the head utilised by a turbine can be easily determined. As the name suggests these equations were formulated by Leonhard Euler in the eighteenth century. [1]

  7. Mechanical advantage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_advantage

    Mechanical advantage that is computed using the assumption that no power is lost through deflection, friction and wear of a machine is the maximum performance that can be achieved. For this reason, it is often called the ideal mechanical advantage (IMA).

  8. Overall labor effectiveness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overall_Labor_Effectiveness

    Accurately measuring this metric with OLE can pinpoint performance improvement opportunities down to the individual level. Calculation: Performance = Actual output of the operators / the expected output (or labor standard) Example: Two employees (workforce) are scheduled to work an 8-hour (480 minute) shift with a 30-minute scheduled break.

  9. Fin (extended surface) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fin_(extended_surface)

    in this equation is equal to the surface area of the fin. The fin efficiency will always be less than one, as assuming the temperature throughout the fin is at the base temperature would increase the heat transfer rate. The third way fin performance can be described is with overall surface efficiency,
