Consider a three sequentially stepped process named as Process A, Process B and Process C. Input comes into Process A. Output fo
rm A goes into Process B. Output from B goes into Process C. Output of C is the final output. Suppose that it takes 2 minutes per unit in Process A, 3 minutes per unit in Process B and 1 minute per unit in Process C. What will be maximum steady state output from this system?
Answer: The process B is at the maximum steady state. A process is said to be at steady state if the variables that define the behavior of the system are unchanging
Explanation: From the Above
Process A takes 2 minutes per unit and hence can process (60/2) = 30 units per hour. Process B can process only (60/3) = 20 units per hour. Process C can handle (60/1) = 60 units per hour. the steady state output from this system is the smallest of the three, that is process B 20 units per hour
