Objective: Consider a one-stop-shop for student service where 15 students arrive per hour
and the service rate is 20 students per hour.

Calculate the following elements:

Probability that there are no students in the system.


𝜆 15
𝑃𝑜 = 1 − =1− = 0.25
𝜇 20

Average number of students (units) in the waiting line.


𝜆2 152
𝐿𝑞 = = = 2.25
𝜇(𝜇 − 𝜆) 20(20 − 15)

Average number of students (units) in the system.


𝜆 15
𝐿𝑠 = = =3
(𝜇 − 𝜆) (20 − 15)

Average time each student (the unit) passes on the waiting line.
𝐿𝑞 2.25
𝑇𝑞 = = = 0.15
𝜆 15

Average time a student (unit) stays in the system.


𝐿𝑠 3
𝑇𝑠 = = = 0.2
𝜆 15

Probability that an arriving student (unit) has to wait for service.


𝜆 15
𝑃= = = 0.75
𝜇 20

Probability that the system has 7 students (units).


𝜆 𝑛 15 7
𝑃𝑛 = ( ) 𝑃𝑜 = ( ) (0.25) = 0.03337
𝜇 20
Objetive: Model the above case with the help of flexsim. Simulate first for one hour. Then,
simulate 8 hours.

1) Block diagram of the simulated system.

Simulation 1 hour.

Simulation 8 hours.
2) Describe the steps to build it.

Origin: It is the beginning of the production of the product towards the line.
Queues: These are the waiting lines that represent shipments to operations or processes.
Process: Oversees the respective product testing.
Outlet: This is the output of the finished product and must meet the specifications
correctly.

3) Analyze results.

By using formulas that describe the steady-state operating characteristics of a single-


channel waiting line, we can obtain accurate probability-based results. However, in a
simulation with Flexsim, for example, if we consider 5 people where the first 2 do not wait
in line to enter, there would only be waiting time for the other 3. However, the calculations
include a waiting time for all, from 1 to 5 people.

4. Conclusions.

This practice allowed us to understand the fundamental concept of how simulation works in
FlexSim. Having created our own model, we gained a clear view of how objects interact in
the program. In addition, we confirm that the simulation of a model developed in FlexSim
facilitates better decision-making in the management of industrial systems focused on
improving their profitability.
