Abstract

Within this chapter, a series of fractional-factorial-, full-factorial-, and confirmation experiments in order to better understand the physics behind the choice and parameterization of the upstream control approach were performed.

Notes

  1. 1.

    For an introduction and the theoretical background of experiment design and analysis, it is referred to Montgomery (2009)

  2. 2.

    A full factorial design for 5 factors varied on 2 levels with 3 replications would need \( {2^5} \cdot 3 = 96 \)

  3. 3.

    \( \frac{{1000\min }}{{60\frac{{\min }}{h}}} = 16.7h \)

  4. 4.

    \( \frac{1}{N}\sum\limits_{{i = 1}}^N {SC{T_i}} \cdot BatchSize \)

  5. 5.

    For details see Appendix 8.8

  6. 6.

    Number of simulation runs calculated by \( 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 = 18 \)
