Abstract

Recently, engine design and control systems have been developed using data-driven modeling techniques to specify the in-cylinder complicated combustion process. The cooling fan performance is highly influenced by several factors that are determined based on what is called (DOE) «design of experiments». These factors include blade tip clearance, pitch angle, distance from radiator. This work presents a method to improve a cooling fan performance of an engine by designing a Six Sigma technique using Control, Improve, Analyze, Measure, and Define (CIAMD). First, let’s assess the existing cooling fan performance and define its problem. Then, let’s specify the parameters that affect on fan performance to be optimized. Next, let’s conduct sensitivity analysis and evaluate manufacturing control of the developed cool Fan. The primary fan does not distribute air enough by the radiator to maintain the machine cool throughout hard circumstances. First, the work demonstrates how to develop an experiment to examine the influence of three performance elements: blade pitch angle, blade-tip clearance, and fan distance from the radiator. In order to improve the performance of the cooling fan, Box-Behnken design is adopted for testing quadratic (nonlinear) effects. It then indicates how to predict optimal quantities for every element, to produce a technique that makes airflows above the objective of 1486.6 m3/h when utilizing experimental measurements. Finally, it reveals how to operate simulations to confirm that this method creates airflow based on the specifications with more additional fans manufactured performance of 99.999 %. The results of S and X-bar control charts indicate that the manufacturing process is statistically under control
