▼ Questo lavoro tratta della programmazione oraria di breve termine (una settimana prima) di impianti di cogenerazione all'interno di grandi siti industriali, dove la richiesta di calore e molto alta ed è fondamentale per i processi industriali. Questa ottimizzazione ha lo scopo di trovare i punti di funzionamento dell¿impianto di cogenerazione che massimizzano i profitti derivanti dalla vendita del calore e dell'elettricità. Il prezzo dell'energia deve essere oggetto di previsione, in quanto dipende dagli esiti del mercato del giorno prima, mentre il prezzo del calore è legato a contratti di lungo termine tra il produttore delle utilities e le controparti del sito industriale. Questi punti di funzionamento devono soddisfare vincoli tecnici, normativi ed economici; in particolare, devono essere soddisfatti gli indici di cogenerazione imposti dalla normativa italiana per consentire all'impianto di ottenere importanti benefici economici, come l'esenzione dall'obbligo di acquisto dei certificati verdi e la priorità di dispacciamento. E' stata sviluppata un'applicazione Matlab per una generica e tipica configurazione di un impianto di cogenerazione, costituito sia da unità con turbine a gas a ciclo combinato e sia da unità a contropressione. La procedura di ottimizzazione è stata applicata ad un case study costituitoda un impianto formato da due unità con turbine a gas a ciclo combinato e duè unità a contropressione. Le relazioni che permettono di valutare le produzioni (calore ed elettricità) ed i consumi (combustibili) delle unità sono state calcolate utilizzando dati sperimentali e dati dei costruttori. E' opportuno evidenziare che l'applicazione del metodo di ottimizzazione assicura il soddisfacimento degli indici di cogenerazione e consente di incrementare il profitto annuale dell'impianto di circa il 6% rispetto alla tipica gestione di un impianto di cogenerazione basata su una ripartizione della richiesta di vapore tra le varie unità prefissata.

▼ The conversion of plutonium from a nuclear weapon to nuclear reactor fuel requires an evaluation of the residual gallium as a potential corrosive material within an operating nuclear fuel element. Homogeneous trace levels of gallium may remain following conversion and have the potential to migrate along the thermal gradient within the fuel and concentrate at the cladding-fuel contact zone. A system to investigate this material transport phenomenon was constructed using small diameter (0.18 inch), indirect electric heaters to simulate the centerline temperatures of operating nuclear fuel in a pressurized water reactor. The heater was inserted into annular surrogate fuel pellets containing depleted uranium, cerium oxide and trace quantities (10 ppm) of gallium to perform an initial study of the gallium migration using non-plutonium fuels and evaluate the performance of the simulation system. Heat was removed from the operating heaters by using an innovative liquid metal heat exchanger. The heaters were of a new design and were required to operate at a nominal temperature of 1000⁰C and for a minimum of 5000 hours. An evaluation of the expected heater lifetime and the thermal simulation system was needed in order to justify the high expense of a proposed full test using prototypic mixed-oxide fuel (MOX) containing plutonium from converted nuclear weapons. Bayesian reliability analysis methods were used to determine the expected heater failure rate because of the expected short test duration and the small sample size. Results from the operation of the simulation system and lifetime data indicate the current heater design is capable of producing the required temperatures and thermal gradients normally found in operating nuclear fuels. However, a design weakness in the heaters resulted in an unacceptably high failure rate of the heaters. The heaters were determined to have a reliability of 0.83 % at 5000 hours of operation with a Mean Time to Failure (MTTF) of 485 hours. The current heater design would require some modification and further testing prior to beginning a full scale test using prototypic MOX fuel pellets.

▼ This laboratory study examined the effect of colored borders and age on the conspicuity of roadside warning signs embedded in cluttered urban environments. Prior research has suggested that a uniform border surrounding a sign will increase its conspicuity. In this study a 10 inch green or white border was placed around a standard 30 inch warning sign. The conspicuity of these signs were compared with a standard size and an enlarged warning sign. A standard sign with red 15 inch square metal flags mounted perpendicular to the top edges was also compared. Twenty young drivers (21-27 years, mean 23.5 years) and twenty older drivers (55-79 years, mean 64.9 years) participated in the study. Subjects viewed a series of 200 slides of complex urban street scenes. One hundred slides contained warning signs embedded at an apparent distance of 250 feet. the other 100 slides contained no warning signs and were used to control guessing. The slide stimuli were displayed with a tachistoscope for 500 ms on a rear projection screen. The subjects task was to identify certain target objects, including warning signs, in each slide. The ratio of hits to possible hits was used to measure relative conspicuity. The 500 ms display time was intended to allow a single fixation, but prevent a search of the scene. The short exposure time was intended to allow hit rates to be a measure of attentional conspicuity. Results were consistent with the hypothesis that a ,uniform border would increase conspicuity. Across all subjects, both border treatments were significantly more conspicuous than a standard sign with no border and an enlarged sign. Red flags were not as effective as borders at increasing a warning signs conspicuity. Age effects were found. Young drivers saw an average of 90.45% of all signs in the study. older drivers saw only 70.01% of the warning signs displayed. Border treatments were beneficial for all subjects, but were especially helpful for older subjects.

The ability of the model to quantify interface quality was the primary focus of the research. The quantitative measure of interest was a parameter of the all-or-none model referred to as a learning rate. Model validation was investigated by comparing learning rates to two other traditional measures of interface quality, mean task completion time and mean number of errors. The HCI environment selected for study was SuperCard , a Macintosh project utility that allows a user to create various applications. Thirty-two college students who TI were experienced Macintosh users but inexperienced SuperCard users participated in the experiment. They were required to learn 16 basic SuperCard T" tasks involving windows, menus, and resources. Sample path data was collected to estimate the model learning rates. Video tapes were analyzed to collect task completion times and numbers of errors. Subjective ratings of user proficiency were also collected. The subjective ratings were originally intended to be used as another comparison measure. However, the uniform distribution of the data and model residuals made any conclusions invalid. The results of this research indicated that learning rates derived from the all-or-none model are valid indicators of interface quality. Correlations between the learning rates and the other two measures were significant. Analyses of variance were conducted for the three measures. The learning rates identified seven SuperCardl" tasks for potential reevaluation and improvement: Name Resource, Window Type, Open/Close Resource, Name Menu, Size Window, Locate Window, and Resource ID. The Size Window and Locate Window tasks were identified by the mean task completion time measure and the Size Window task was identified by the mean number of errors measure. Additionally, user type was not a significant effect for the all-or-none model. Whether a user is a frequent or occasional user was a significant effect for mean task completion time and approached significance for mean number of errors.

▼ This thesis reports on the impact of combined heat and noise on the performance of a short-term memory retention task with two levels of difficulty. Thirty-two males, ages 18 - 35, were exposed to four different treatment conditions during four one hour sessions. These four treatment conditions consisted of: a control environment, a noise environment a heat environment, and a combined heat and noise environment. Temperatures during the control and noise conditions were maintained between 68 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit while temperatures during the heat and combined conditions were maintained at 105 degrees Fahrenheit. Sound exposure levels during the noise and combined conditions averaged at 83.7 decibels with peak frequency exposures never exceeding 93.5 decibels for ten seconds. The task to be performed was a computerized version of game "Concentration". Subjects were presented with both a 6 x 8 and an 8 x 8 grid of blank tiles and asked to correctly match as many tile pairs as they could in three minutes. The task was repeated twice for each grid. Results from the 6 x 8 grid showed performance decrements for all three stress conditions with combined heat and noise showing the greatest performance decrement. However, none of these decrements were found to be significantly different from the control environment or from each other at an Alpha level of .05. Further, no significant evidence was found to show that the combined effects of heat and noise exceed the effects of either stressor singularly. Results from the 8 x 8 grid proved to be different. While performance decrements were observed for the heat and noise conditions alone, the greatest overall performance scores were observed during the combined stress condition. Again, none of these scores were found to be significantly different from the control environment or from each other at an Alpha level of .05. It appears, from these results, that heat and noise stress, experienced either singularly or in combination does not have a significant effect on short-term memory or overall performance degradation.

▼ This study was conducted to determined the population stereotypes of a group of novice robot users . The study focused on the stereotypes concerning the design of teach pendants for horizontally articulated robots. Expectancies from a written survey showed most of the naive users preferred to use human-like terms (e.g. elbow, wrist, arm) to identify the parts of a robot. Familiar motion terms (e.g. left, right, up, down) were preferred to describe the motions of the robot. The application of the names to a motion were dependent on the users orientation to the robot. While answering the survey, most users preferred to either be in front of or behind the robot model. Responses for control-motion expectancies in the horizontal plane were dependent on the users orientation to the robot. Controlmotion expectancies for vertical and rotational motions were independent of orientation. The study also compared the usability of pendant designs on two common industrial robots. One pendant (Pendant A) was designed with technical labeling (e.g. Y+/-, X+/-) and allowed for continuous control of the robot's speed. The other pendant (Pendant B) was designed with simple labeling (e.g. Left, Right, Forward, Back) and had three discrete speed settings. The required number of trials to reach an asymptote and the time to complete the last trial were not significantly different. When operating the robots, the users preferred to position themselves in front of the robot. Those who had positioned themselves behind the robot model while answering the survey shifted to the front of the real robot due to the robot obscuring their view. Users of Pendant A committed significantly fewer over control errors due to the continuous speed-control ability. Users of Pendant B tried to perform all the moves in the high-speed setting, rather than toggle to a slower speed. The users of Pendant B committed significantly more Left/Right (Y+/Y-) errors. Users commented that they were confused by whether the Left/Right control labels meant their left/right or the robot's left/right. The expectancies exhibited by the users were used to develop guidelines for the design of teach pendants. A four-button layout (top, bottom, left, right buttons causing forward, backward, left, right robot motion respectively), with a continuous speed control ability, was found to fit most users' control-movement expectancies.

▼ This thesis was performed in order to determine the ability to make correct decisions when presented with two stressors under four conditions: controlled (70'F and 65 dBA); heat (105'F and 65 dBA); noise (70'F and 83 dBA); and combined heat and noise (105'F and 83 dBA). The primary purpose of this study was to look explicitly at the effects of heat and noise in combination. The dependent factor was the mean number of tiles removed in two trials, each lasting four minutes. It was expected that the effect of one factor is not the same at each level of the other factor and the combined effect would reduce one's performance. This expectation was based on Grether's study (1973) where decrement was achieved above 85'F and Weinstein's study (1974) where distracting noises caused performance to decrease. Thirty-two subjects who were in the military or were soon entering the service were used in this study. Participants spent up to fifty-five minutes under each treatment. Care was taken not to schedule subjects within two to three days of their previous trial. This experiment used a four factor repeating Latin Square design to control for the two stressor variables. The mean of the conditions in which a stressor was presented (either singly or combined) differed significantly from the controlled condition. The subjects' performance increased under the heat, noise, and combined conditions as compared to the control condition. The mean of the combined stress condition exceeded the means of all other conditions. Although it differed significantly from the noise stress, it did not differ from the heat condition. No one stressor acting singly caused a significantly different task performance than the other. In conclusion, performance increased as a result of adding stressors. In this experiment heat and noise did not interfere with, but rather improved, task performance as no decrement in decision-making abilities of the subjects was noted during the conduct of this experiment. Analyzing the order by treatment effects showed a steady increase in performance. When comparing the slopes of the task performance lines, the presence of a subtractive interaction was evident under these conditions, but not significant. Hence, like Grether (1 971 and 1972 that involved heat, noise, and vibration), the results were not as expected when subjects were placed under these experimental conditions.
