Kriging model is widely used as design DACE(analysis and computer experiments) model in the field of engineering design to accomplish computationally feasible design optimization. In this paper, the optimization of gate valve was performed using Kriging based approximation model. The DACE modeling, known as the one of Kriging interpolation, is introduced to obtain the surrogate approximation model of the function. In addition, we describe the definition, the prediction function and the algorithm of Kriging method and examine the accuracy of Kriging by using validation method.
