Application of Hill Climbing Algorithm for Optimization of Plate Fin Heat ExchangerBy Rakhade R. D, Panchbhai M.P., Gujrathi A.S.
Abstract: This paper demonstrates the application of Hill Climbing algorithm for the design optimization of Plate-Fin Heat Exchanger (PFHE). Maximization of the effectiveness and minimization of the total annual cost are considered as two objective functions. Thermal modelling is done by ε-NTU method to estimate the heat exchanger effectiveness and pressure drop. Fin pitch, fin height, fin offset length, cold stream flow length, no-flow length and hot stream flow length are …
