Optimization of Performance and Emission Responses of Common Rail Direct Injection Engine by Taguchi-Grey Relational Analysis Technique †
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Methodology
- Experimental data’s normalization.
- Grey relation coefficient (GRC) estimation for each response.
- Grey relation grade calculation for each response.
- Choosing the best levels depending on the gray relation grade.
- Employing the signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) to analyze the GRG.
- By using an ANOVA with the GRG, the importance of the engine control component is determined.
