Optimisation of energy consumption and productivity Of a garment factory

Abstract

In most Garment factories the energy cost represents a considerable portion of the total production cost. The aim of this project is to build a computer model for a garment factory so as to analyse the various conditions that affect the energy. Most of the Garment factories use air-conditioners. Since 40- 60% of the total energy cost of a garment factory is due to the air-condit. oners, it is proposed to first make a computer model to control the Temperature, Humidity level, and Oxygen level for given conditions so as to optimise the total energy cost.
