TP26-19 The Effect of Two-Stage Optimization Studies Using RSM and Adjoint on the Efficiency of Cooling Tower FansThis study investigates the effect of two stage optimization, based on Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and the adjoint method, on the efficiency of cooling tower fans. In the first stage, RSM was used to methodically explore the design space and find the most significant geometric parameters affecting fan efficiency and static pressure rise. Through optimization based on RSM, static pressure rise and efficiency improved by 20. 6% and 18. 2%,
