Abstract
A novel superstructure-based MINLP formulation is proposed for synthesis of cooling water networks with intermediate mains.
The proposed mathematical model considers the generic problem confronted
in the design of a re-circulating cooling water system, including
stretching the cooler network design and setting the operation constraints.
Besides the original design items, this research probes into how the number of
intermediate cooling water mains influence the re-circulating cooling water
system's performance.
We also study how the conditional direct connections among cooling units
can decrease the consumption of the re-circulating cooling water with
a little sacrifice of piping complexity.
Typical representative examples are presented to demonstrate
the viability of proposed superstructure-based MINLP formulation.
Supported by the results of computer analysis, the network superstructure and its
design scheme can effectively accomplish the goal of unraveling the design problem
of the re-circulating cooling water system with intermediate cooling water
mains, and proffering the optimal structure in designing the re-circulating
cooling water systems.
