Abstract

The response surface methodology was employed to make mathematical modeling and optimization of the temperature and pressure for centrifugal compressor. ProSimulator software was used for simulation of process parameter mainly temperature (x) and pressure (y). We considered a polynomial regression model equation between independent variable (x) and dependent variable (y). The simulation parameter revealed that the modeled values were in good agreement with simulated ones.
