| dc.description.abstract | The main purpose of this paper is to examine the application of Taguchi method and program TracePro optical simulation software, to do for the optoelectronics industry in LED lighting design and analysis, and low-cost, high-quality objectives for the design.
Taguchi method will be establish the best combination of parameters, the material of the lighting tube, cross-section shape of the lighting tube, cutting angle on both sides of the lighting tube, cutting height above the lighting tube, the type of the lens on both sides of the lighting tube and the type of notch above the lighting tube, such as six factors can be controlled and used to do five standard design parameters.
By using the Taguchi method orthogonal arrays, tableＬ25(56), to set the parameters. We simulated in TracePro, and obtained 25 sets of simulation results, and calculate the results to identify the main effects of the process elements. Then we got the best response between the various factors. Taguchi method can be effectively reduce simulation times to 25, the 6 factors and the 5 levels of each factor to be done the simulation to 15625 times. The designers can get better design parameters in a short time.
The original design of lighting tube without optimization by Taguchi method, the situation in TracePro simulated irradiance for 0.41353 W/m2. The design by using Taguchi method had the better irradiance for 0.80217 W/m2 in TracePro into the simulation, the irradiance was improved significantly.
