Optimisation models for heat exchanger networks with streams segmentation
The work deals with optimisation of heat exchanger network (HEN) of fixed structure. An optimisation model of HEN has been developed. The model accounts for temperature influence on heat capacity (Cp) values by the so called stream segmentation. The model has been coded into a software for optimal retrofitting of HENs,
