Thermal insulation of buildings is one of the most effective energy conservation methods. However, most of the building walls still have little or no insulation despite Turkish Thermal Insulation Standard in Turkey. Four provinces from different climate zones, obtained by the Turkish Thermal Insulation Standard; Izmir (1st zone), Istanbul (2nd zone), Ankara (3rd zone), and Erzurum (4th zone) were selected for analysis. The aim of this study is to investigate of efficient parameters on optimum insulation thickness (OIT) in terms of the order of importance using theoretical‐Taguchi coupled method. The OIT was considered as performance parameter. An L16 (43*22) orthogonal array was chosen as a design plan for the five parameters (wall, insulation, fuel type, heating degree‐day (HDD) and lifetime). The results were analyzed using signal‐to‐noise (S/N) ratio and analysis of variance method. Furthermore, contribution ratios for each parameter on OIT. HDD value is the most effective parameter on the OIT with a contribution ratio of 34.53% percentage of the total effect. The second most effective parameter is insulation type with a contribution ratio of 30.6%, and the effect of fuel type on the OIT is contribution ratio of 24.18% and it is followed by lifetime (8.2%), wall type (0.67%), respectively. Consequently, daily mean temperature of cities is most important parameter on OIT. Insulation and fuel type effect is less than HDD, the impact of fuel type is close the impact of insulation type, and the effect of wall type is less than the other parameters. © 2017 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Environ Prog, 36: 1824–1831, 2017

“…Taguchi method and ANOVA are generally used in experimental studies. Recently, however, there are numerous computational fluid dynamics studies [31][32][33][34][35][36] coupled with the Taguchi method and ANOVA. In this way, the number of numerical analysis decreases in the study and time is saved.…”

“…Taguchi experimental design is a classic experimental design method dedicated to optimization of process performance, quality and minimize its cost [16]. In recent years, application of Taguchi method has been introduced into many research fields, such as chemical engineering, and thermal engineering [17]. The method involves use of Taguchi orthogonal array (OA), which is developed based on factorial design [18].…”

The feasibility of base (0.1 M NaOH) treated cone shell of Calabrian pine as an effective and inexpensive biosorbent was examined for removal of C.I. Basic Red 46 as a model azo dye from aqueous solution. Biosorption conditions selected for this study were optimized using Taguchi experimental design. The pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, logistic, and intraparticle diffusion models were used for the evaluation of kinetic data. The logistic model presented the best fit to the experimental results with the most suitable statistical outcomes. The intraparticle diffusion was not the only rate-limiting step for the dye biosorption and also the other mechanism(s) may control the rate of biosorption or all of which may be operating simultaneously. Furthermore, the relationship between the kinetic parameters and the biosorption performance was investigated. The equilibrium data were analyzed using Freundlich, Langmuir, and DubininRadushkevich isotherm models. Langmuir model fitted better to the biosorption data than Freundlich model. The maximum monolayer biosorption capacity of the biosorbent for the dye was found to be 89.76 mg g 21 . Besides, when compared with the natural cone shell, the chemically modified cone shell has a greater biosorption capacity for C.I. Basic Red 46. The base modification improved the biosorption ability of the biosorbent for the dye. Dubinin-Radushkevich model and the standard Gibbs free energy change presented that the predominant mechanism of the biosorption of dye by the cone shell was likely physical biosorption. Finally, a single-stage batch biosorption system design for the dye removal was outlined based on the equilibrium data obtained.
