The optimal design of large-scale heat exchanger networks is a quite difficult task not only due to its non-linear characteristics but also due to a great number of local optima in its …
This paper provides a critical review of the literature on heat-exchanger network synthesis, the most commonly studied problem in process synthesis. After a review of solution …
We propose a new strategy to synthesize heat exchanger networks with detailed designs of individual heat exchangers. The proposed strategy uses a multistep approach by first …

The HEN synthesis problem is one amongst many engineering problems which can be characterized as highly combinatorial, nonlinear and nonconvex, all contributing to …
In this paper, an efficient as well as reliable approach to deal with heat exchanger networks (HENs) synthesis problems, which is inherently known as a mixed-integer non-linear …
In the present paper, a bi-level optimization approach is proposed to synthesize Heat Exchanger Networks (HEN), based on a hybrid meta-heuristic method. Simulated Annealing …
Process integration techniques have been widely accepted as an effective tool in synthesising a cost optimal heat exchanger network (HEN). However, most works on HEN …
