Application of Taguchi method in optimization of design parameter for turbocharger vaned diffuser

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine the best vaned diffuser design that can generate higher pressure output at a predetermined speed. Design/methodology/approach: Several vaned diffusers of thin, flat-type design with different number of blades and blade angle were fabricated. The van...
