Prozessabhängige

Prozessabhängige bezeichnunguly is a term used in German technical language to indicate that a property, measurement, or result depends on the specific process conditions and the history of the process. It describes how outcomes are not solely determined by the inherent nature of a material or system, but vary with factors such as temperature, pressure, time, sequencing of steps, material preparation, and prior treatments. The adjective prozessabhängig is often paired with nouns like Größen, Ergebnisse or Eigenschaften to emphasize this dependency.

The concept is widely used across engineering, manufacturing, chemistry, and materials science. In chemical engineering, for example, reaction yield and selectivity can be prozessabhängig because they change with reaction temperature, pressure, solvent, catalysts, and mixing. In materials science, microstructure, grain size, residual stress, or phase distribution may be prozessabhängig due to cooling rates or heat-treatment history. In production and quality assurance, surface finish, defect density, or dimensional accuracy can be prozessabhängig, reflecting variations in tooling, processing parameters, or process wear. In metrology or laboratory work, measurement results can be prozessabhängig if sample preparation, calibration, or environmental conditions influence the outcome.

Handling prozessabhängige Größen involves explicitly documenting process conditions, standardizing procedures, and, where possible, using process-aware models and controls. This awareness helps in comparing results, reproducing experiments, and reducing variability by isolating or compensating for the influencing process factors.
