Many studies are performed by researchers about Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger but the Multi-Objective Big Bang-Big Crunch algorithm (MOBBA) technique has never been used in such studies. This paper presents application of Thermal-Economic Multi-Objective Optimization of Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Using MOBBA. For optimal design of a shell and tube heat exchanger, it was first thermally model...

C3MR, MFC, and DMR processes in an integrated LNG-NGL-NRU structure are investigated using the conventional and advanced exergy and exergoeconomic analyses. The results of advanced exergy analysis reveal that in most of the equipment, the highest amount of irreversibility is occurred because of endogenous exergy destruction. In C3MR process, compressor C5 with 9730 kW; in MFC process, compresso...

in this work, a thermal energy storage system was designed and equipped with measuring instruments to study heat transfer characteristics and energy storage and release. in this system, a cubic container which is made of plexiglass was filled with dodecanoic acid as a phase change material. in order to transfer heat to the storage container, a constant temperature heat exchanger was designed an...

A-Type heat exchangers are used to meet required heat load with minimum duct dimensions in air-conditioning applications. This greatly reduces the air-conditioning system footprint in residential and commercial applications. The angle and tube spacing of the A-type heat exchangers should be optimized for minimum duct size and maximum heat load. However, existing air side heat transfer and press...
