Use of genetic algorithms for the optimal design of shell-and-tube heat exchangers
TL;DR: In this article, an approach based on genetic algorithms for the optimal design of shell-and-tube heat exchangers is presented. But the approach uses the Bell-Delaware method for the description of the shell-side flow with no simplifications.

An automated approach for heat exchanger network retrofit featuring minimal topology modifications
N.D.K. Asante,X. X. Zhu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a two-stage approach for retrofit heat exchanger network (HEN) design, consisting of a modification selection stage and an optimisation stage, is described. And the resulting HEN is then optimised during the optimization stage, using nonlinear optimisation techniques, to minimise the cost of additional surface area employed.
