The pinch design method for heat exchanger networks
B. Linnhoff,E. Hindmarsh +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a novel method is presented for the design of heat exchanger networks, which combines sufficient simplicity to be used by hand with near certainty to identify "best" designs, even for large problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Total site targets for fuel, co-generation, emissions, and cooling
Vikas R. Dhole,B. Linnhoff +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors extend the procedures of Pinch Technology from single processes to the concept of total sites, where factories incorporating several processes, serviced by and linked through a central utility system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cost optimum heat exchanger networks—1. Minimum energy and capital using simple models for capital cost
B. Linnhoff,S. Ahmad +1 more
TL;DR: A simple methodology for the design of near-optimal heat exchanger networks which systematically takes account of the energy—capital tradeoff is presented, based on setting cost targets, and optimizing these targets prior to design.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding heat exchanger networks
TL;DR: There are a number of physical facts and phenomena relating to networks in their entirety rather than to isolated unit operations that can be immensely improved when these phenomena are properly taken account of.
Journal ArticleDOI
Minimum utility usage in heat exchanger network synthesis : a transportation problem
TL;DR: In this article, the minimum utility calculation for a heat exchanger network synthesis is formulated as a transportation problem from linear programming, allowing one to develop an effective interactive computing aid for this problem.
