15. DESIGN OF EXPERIMENTS

 

· WHAT? combinations of individual parameters for process control are varied, and their effect on output quantities are measured. From this we determine the sensitivity of the process to each parameter.

 

· WHY? Because randomly varying (trial and error) individual parameters takes too long and the results are not mathematically conclusive.
