Multiple-solution heat exchanger network synthesis for enabling the best industrial implementation

Energy, 2020, vol. 208, issue C

Abstract: The synthesis of heat recovery networks traditionally results in an optimal or suboptimal solution for the supplied set of streams and simplifying assumptions. In the current work, the assumption of a single optimal solution is replaced by the goal of generating an ordered set of optimal or quasi-optimal networks. This enables industrial engineers to further select the solution most suitable for detailed design and practical implementation.
