Course Description (4 hours):
This short course is intended to introduce people to the concept of Design of Experiments (DOE) and how it can be applied to thermal engineering for effective design and experimentation. Beginning with a discussion of effective experimentation, the class will progress through different types of experimentation used today, the role of statistics in planning experiments and the product designs they influence, to an overview of various types of DOEs. The course will then show the process of setting up a typicalEDOE and follow with short examples, one from an analytical thermal design using a DOE and an experimental DOE of a cooling system.
