Optimization of thermal performance of a smooth flat-plate solar air heater using teaching–learning-based optimization algorithm

This paper presents the performance of teaching–learning-based optimization (TLBO) algorithm to obtain the optimum set of design and operating parameters for a smooth flat plate solar air heater (SFPSAH). The TLBO algorithm is a recently proposed population-based algorithm, which simulates the teach...
