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.

Response Envelope

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.
