Question about HC Sub Flows

amyhyolee — Tue, 26 Mar 2024 19:14:06 GMT

[ FlexSim 21.2.4 ]

Can we specify how long it takes for "transport patient" activity or "escort patient" activity by adding a distribution? or is it only possible based on the walking speed of the nurse?

@Amy 시뮬레이션에서는 운반 시간에 관련된 설정은 기본 속도에 기반하여 설정하는 것입니다. 운반전후 또는 도중에 자원의 부족 또는 기타 다른 이유로 인하여 운반이 지연되는 것까지 시간 설정으로 제어는 기본적으로 권장하지 않는 방법입니다. 만약 굳이 그렇게 하겠다면 뭐하러 시뮬레이션 툴을 사용하나요? 엑셀로 계산하면 되지 않겠어요?

In the simulation, settings related to transport time are based on the default speed. Controlling delays in transportation by setting a time before, during, or after transportation due to lack of resources or other reasons is basically not recommended. If you really want to do that, why do you use the simulation tool? Wouldn’t it be possible to calculate it in Excel?

Because the system might have many interdependencies which make an Excel model cumbersome. Also because FlexSim's path finding may not match that taken by the operator, or account for congestion, and because the user may not realize they can set the speed dynamically before the travel task. Unfortunately there's no way to scale the travel time in the way there is the ability to scale kinematics to a set time.
