Hi everyone! PolarFlow Optics reporting 🙂

This week was dynamic and full of activities. Last Saturday, we had an enriching training with FLP Energy Service that introduced us to the basics of Lean Six Sigma. We learned about continuous improvement, teamwork, and quality control. There was a team activity during the training focused on process efficiency, which we enjoyed. We are eager to implement all that new knowledge in our project! In class, we also learned the basics of how to pitch our project, making sure to adapt it according to who is our audience.

On the other hand, we are continuing to work on the design concepts. We presented our ideas to the liaisons, and they ranked their preferences. We are leaning toward a double-wall nozzle design that can provide insulation to avoid ice build-up. ANSYS simulations are being set up to test different parameters and nozzle shapes, and we have contacted providers to get quotes.
