This article describes the application of 2k-design of experiment in order to screen the geometric parameters and experimental refinement of ceiling fan blades. The ratio of the air delivery to the power consumed is commonly known as Service Value (SV) in ceiling fan designer’s community. Service Value was considered as the response for 56 inch ceiling fan and four geometric parameters (bend position at root, bend position at tip, bent angle at root and bent angle at tip) of blade were analyzed. With two levels, the four-design parameters along with their eleven interactions were studied and design of experiment was employed for experimental arrangement. Blade manufacturing and testing was done in a medium-scale enterprise. The objective was achieved and service value of ceiling fan was increased by 10.4% without increasing the cost of production and manufacturing system. Experiments were designed and results were analyzed using Minitab® 16 software package.
