UTILIZATION OF LATIN SQUARE EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN PLANS IN PARAMETRIC STUDIES OF HEAT TRANSFER PROBLEMS
要約
A technique is proposed for reducing the number of repetitious solutions required to carry out a conventional parametric study of a theoretical problem. The technique utilizes latin-square experimental design plans,
and is applicable to a particular class of heat transfer problems which involve the numerical solution of differential equations. An applicability criterion is presented, along with a method for predicting the
errors which might be expected if a problem does not satisfy the criterion exactly. The proposed technique is applied to a periodic flow heat exchanger, which is representative of the type of problem to which the
analysis appears to afford the greatest potential.
