Optimization of Internal Combustion Engine Tests with Response Surface Methodology: A Review

Abstract

Experimental design is an important technique to reduce cost, determine optimum parameters and obtain scientifically meaningful results. Response surface methodology is a useful method for the design and optimization of experiments. In this review, theoretical information about the method, calculations and stages of designing are clearly stated. Apart from this, in this study, the applications in the literature are summarized for the researchers who will carry out optimization studies in internal combustion engines.
