Abstract:This paper presents a multiobjective
mixed-integer nonlinear programming
(MOMINLP) model to handle the trade-off issue between improving the
heat recovery quantity and quality as well as considering economic
feasibility in the integration of an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) with
the heat exchanger network (HEN). The first objective is the minimum
utility consumption (Q
uc) of the stand-alone
HEN, after which ORC is constrained upon just absorbing heat below
the pinch point of HEN. The second objective is the min… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
