Cylinder Head Design of Experiment by using the Wartsila Digital Design Platform

Abstrakti

Cylinder Head Design of Experiment (DOE) was carried out by using the Wartsila digital design platform. The overall goal has been to create a simulation process to perform a complete cylinder head thermal-structural calculation and create a DOE over that process to vary the inputs, the geometrical parameters under optimization, in a fully automatic workflow. The outputs, uploaded to the DOE activity, were used to rank the input effects on the output response, to capture response sensitivity to input changes, to identify parameter interactions and, at the end, to estimate the optimal design.
