In the published studies, to best of authors’ understanding, grey Taguchi-based statistical technique has not been applied for optimization combined gas-steam power plants. view this, seven essential input parameters namely compressor inlet air temperature, pressure ratio, fuel volumetric flow rate fuel, gas turbine maximum efficiency, and efficiency are chosen with aim determining optimal comb...

Perlite or pearl stone is a natural glass which has formed by rapid cooling of viscous lava or magma. Perlite is mainly composed of silica, aluminum, potassium and sodium. In this experiment, perlite was used as a low-cost source of Si and Al to synthesis of sodalite zeolite using the alkaline hydrothermal treatment. A statistical Taguchi design of experiments was employed to evaluate the effec...

The purpose of this research is to investigate on the influences of cutting parameters on machine tool vibration & surface finish using MEMS Accelerometer in high precision CNC milling machine. The cutting parameters considered are depth of cut, feed rate and spindle speed. In this work, efforts has been made to acquire vibration data on spindle housing using MEMS Accelerometer, measure surface...

Mobile ad-hoc network routing protocol performance is evaluated mostly through simulative studies. One-factor-at-atime approach is commonly used to quantify the effect of various factors on the protocol performance. In this work, the effect of several factors was investigated simultaneously and speedily with the application of Taguchi design of experiments. The effect of the factors which inclu...

Robustness is an important requirement for almost all kinds of products. In this article we show how evolutionary algorithms can be applied for robust design based on the approach of Taguchi. As an example we consider the design of multilayer optical coatings most frequently used for optical lters.

Abstract The main goal of this study is optimization of densification of ZrB2-SiC composites reinforced with chopped Cf prepared by SPS. Taguchi method is employed as statistical design of experiment (DOE) to optimize densification parameters including SiC, Cf, MoSi2, HfB2 and ZrC content, milling time of Cf and SPS parameters such as temperature, time and pressure. Each of these factors ...

The aim of this paper to review the Taguchi based Grey relational analysis is used to find the best process parameters and improved quality results. The GRA was proposed to optimize the multi response problem by making use of the grey relational coefficient and grey relational grade. GRA is attempted to integrate multiple responses, it is feasible to combine GRA with Taguchi method to provide a...
