Influence of various parameters on pressure drop during flow condensation in pipe Using Taguchi Approach

摘要

The process parameters optimization is the essential step in Taguchi approach,which utilizes orthogonal array for maximizing the effect of controllable parameters and for minimizing the effect of uncontrollable process parameters.This study presents optimal parameters that influences on the flow condensation pressure drop in the pipe using Taguchi method.This investigation was carried out for optimization of pressure drop(AP)for flow condensation.The factors considered at three different levels are saturation temperature(T),Diameter(D),Mass flux(G).The L_(27)orthogonal array is employed and signal-to-noise(S/N)ratio and the analysis of variance,(ANOVA)are considered for identifying the best optimum conditions under larger is the better characteristic.
