Response surface methodology was employed to optimize the efficiency of a refrigeration cycle demonstration unit using a multiresponse optimization approach. Statistically designed experiments were conducted to simultaneously minimize energy consumption and maximize the refrigeration effect of a compression refrigeration cycle. Regression models were fitted to refrigeration and electrical powers and optimal variable settings were identified using an easy-to-use optimization criterion. Results give confidence to apply the illustrated approach in academic and industrial settings, namely for optimizing equipment operation. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
