| Summary: | This report covers the work carried out in cooperation with Kongsberg Automotive AB during the thesis work performed by all third year students at Jönköping University. During the project a measurement equipment for testing the capacity of the fans, I.E their flow and pressure, was to be generated and examples for constructions given. The fans which were to be tested has the function to vent the car seats. Similar products are already on the market and this work was how to find new innovative solutions to simplify the construction, installation, and improve the design of the product to meet the employer's requirements. In addition to Kongsberg’s requirements the equipment had to be designed after an ANSI standard to meet Kongsberg’s customers’ demands. This report will examine the steps taken to generate new solutions through various concept generating methods and how these are then screened out to find the best concept. In connection with this a detailed specification of requirements which the development of test equipment is based on was created. The report then describes the design process of the product which was carried out. The work was based also on several different theories about materials and the choice of production method and will be described in the early stages of the report. As this work does not include the physical manufacturing of the prototype, only the steps leading up to a final concept drawings and selection of the purchased components required is described.
