An automotive engineer wishes to improve the burst pressure of radiator for the next generation of vehicle. The engineer focuses on the brazing process used to join the aluminum radiator components together. The engineer runs an experiment in which radiators are fabricated using three different types of filler (1, 2,3) material and two different brands of flux (A, B). The flux prepared the surfaces to be joined and protects them from oxidation while the filler material joins the components. The radiators are brazed in an oven at the same temperature setting. The oven holds twelve radiators so two of each treatment combination are used.
a) What is the response of interest?
We are questioned about the interest-related reaction. The dependent variable is another name for this answer. We can alter a few variables to change the radiator burst pressure.
b) List the factors of interest and whether they are categorical or continuous.
c) List out all possible treatment combinations.
d) What is the experimental unit? What is the observational unit?
