Challenge
The reactor stress was excessive for the temperatures.
Solution
Developed Parametric Models, Generated Design of Experiments, completed trade studies
Result
The stress was decreased 78% and the best shape of components was determined with local sensitivity.
Technical Reference Demonstration Parametric Optimization & Response Surface Methodology (ANSYS DesignXplorer)
This example illustrates response surface construction, DOE sampling, and multi-objective trade space exploration applied to structural systems.
A parametric model of the reactor system allows a DOE study and a plot of how variables contribute to key output values.
A weighted Multi-Objective optimization can be used to select the best combination of competing input variables.
