1. The company has requested that you run experiments to determine the best combination of factors to improve the performance of a refrigeration system. There are four factors to be studied, as shown in Table Q1a. Measured performance levels are shown in Table Q1b. (a) Using SN (signal-to-noise) methodology, determine which factor is the dominant one. . [16 marks) (b) Confirm the optimal combination of the operational parameters using main effect analysis. [7 marks] (c) Using graphical method show if there is any interaction between factors B and C.
