Chapter 5 Technological Processes
Processes – are what happen within a system. They take inputs and change them into outputs. • Design products, structures, energy conversion, communicate messages.
Technological Processes – 3 headings • 1. Problem solving/Design • Identify the problem or opportunity • Develop multiple solutions • Isolating, refining, and detailing the best solution. • Model and evaluate the selected solution • Communicate the final solution.
2. Production Processes – 7 total • A. Agricultural and Related Biotechnological Processes • Propagation • Growth • Harvest • Conversion/Process
B. Communication and Info Processes • Encoding • Transmitting • Receiving • Decoding • Storing/Retrieving
C. Construction Process • There are two groups… building/civil • Buildings – Residential, Commercial, Industrial • Civil – Roads, Bridges, Dams, Canals, Airports
Common Steps in the construction process. • Prep site • Set foundation • Build superstructure • Install utilities • Enclose structure • Finish • Complete the site • Service the structure
D. Energy and Power Processes • Six Forms of Energy • Mechanical • Chemical • Radiant • Thermal • Electrical • Nuclear
Process of gaining energy • Gather resources • Convert energy • Transmit energy • Apply energy
E. Manufacturing Processes • Obtain Resources • Harvest • Mining • Drilling • Primary Processing • Steel mill makes steel sheets or bars from iron ore, limestone, coke etc. • These materials make an industrial material that is standard
Secondary Processes • Casting and Molding • Forming • Separating • Conditioning
F. Medical processes • Prevention • Diagnosis • Treatment
G. Transportation processes • Land • Water • Air • Space
Vehicular Systems – on board technical systems that make a vehicle work. • Structure • Propulsion • Guidance • Control • Suspension Support systems include pathways and terminals.
3. Management Process • Designed to guide and direct the other processes with four steps • Planning • Organizing • Actuating • Controlling
