Knowledge based genetic-simulated-annealing method for optimizing tube circuit of fin-and-tube heat exchangers

A knowledge based genetic-simulated-annealing method for optimizing the tube circuit of fin-and-tube heat exchangers was presented by introducing specialized knowledge and the simulated annealing method into the existing method.Case studies were performed on a practical fin-and-tube heat exchanger.The optimization target is to obtain maximum heat exchange capacity of the heat exchanger with the constraint conditions of practical manufacture.The test results showed that after optimization,all paths of the optimal tube circuit were uniformly distributed in the airflow field and contained equal number of tubes,and the imbalance of heat transfer among the paths was avoided.The heat exchange capacity of the heat exchanger was 22% larger than that before optimization,and was 10.3% larger than that obtained by the existing pure-genetic-algorithm-based optimization method.
