1.4 APPERANCE
The product should have a glistening appearance, which can attract the prospective consumers of the popcorn.
Reliability and Life
The expected useful life in normal circumstance should not be less than 10 years.
Limitation
(1) There was no conveyor that should remove the popcorn from the hot pot.
(2) There was no time to indicate when the corn is fully popped.
(3) There was no thermostat to regulate the temperature of the system.
(4) There was noting like lagging to trap some of the heat.
1.5 PRECAUTION
Accident
can be defined as an unexpected unplanned and unpredicted event, which
could course loss of life, damage of properties and stoppage of work.
Safety can also be defined as freedom from accident.
The following precautions are put in place when operating the machine.
1. Touching of hot pot during processing is no advisable.
2. Line wire most not be touched with unprotected hands.
3. Broken glasses and frame should be properly disposed.
1.6 THEORY OF DESIGN AND ANALYSIS
The diameters of the machine are as follows:
Length of Frame 510mm
Base 510mm
Diameter of Bigger Pot 50mm
Diameter of Smaller Pot 45mm
Height of Frame 710mm
Volume L x B x H
V 184671000
HEAT TRANFER
CONSTRUCTION
This
is the method of heat transfer by which heat energy moves from a region
of higher concentration of heat to that to lower concentration while
the material or body in question remain at fixed point. Most metals
allow heat energy to pass through them and are said to be good
conductors of heat. Non-metals such as woods, cotton paper and cork do
not allow heat to pass through them. This one called bad conductors or
insulators. Though all metals are classified as good conditions, they
differ in their ability to conduct heat. In order word, they need
material medium for their propagation.

ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]An electric popcorn machine is machine that is used to popcorn for human consumption. It uses electricity as it sources of energy, transfer it energy, that is used to pop the Corn. Also it has a stirrer, which rotate due to the convection of electrical energy from the source to mechanical energy in the motor, the stirrer tons the corn so that it will not burns.This project went as far as meeting most of the requirement of advancement in technology, which lead to make-work easy and comfortable fo ...
