Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 化學工程學研究所 === 101 === This research aims to develop a mathematical model for handling the design problem of a compression refrigeration system. A superstructure is firstly proposed which can be used to describe all possible configurations of a compression refrigeration system.
By describing relevant constrains for each part of the superstructure, and adapting total compressor work or total annual cost as the objective function, the problem of designing the compression refrigeration system can be formulated as a mixed-integer nonlinear program (MINLP) that can then be solved ot determine the optimal configurations and operating conditions.
Three numerical examples are presented, with simple or multiple refrigeration loads,
in this work in order to demonstrate that the proposed superstructure-based MINLP formulation can be used to decide the suitable configuration of a compression refrigeration system.
