초록

This paper proposes an optimal design scheme to improve the muffler's capacity of noise reduction of the exhaust system by combining the Taguchi method and a fractional factorial design. As a measuring tool for the performance of a muffler, the performance prediction software which is developed by Oh, Lee and Lee (1996) is used. In the first stage of a design, the length and radius of each component of the current muffler system are selected as control factors. Then, the $L_{18}$ table of orthogonal arrays is adopted to extract the effective main factors. In the second stage, the fractional factorial design is adopted to take interactions into consideration, which the $L_{18}$ table of orthogonal arrays can not consider. For an optimal design, the $L_{27}$ table of orthogonal arrays with main and interaction effects is proposed and the noise factors such as temperature, background noise and humidity are analyzed for more efficient design simultaneously.
