  1. OWAIS NOORUDDINÅbo AkademiSupervisor Prof. Henrik SaxenOptimization of refrigeration process

  2. Problem Description • To optimize the cooling system of 2 MW • Free cooling. Is it enough? • Free cooling alongwith vapor compression cycle. • Mix integer non linear optimization of cooling system for the whole year run.

  3. Process Integration Storage Tank Vapor Compression Cycle HE-1 HE-2 HE-3 HE-4 Hot stream

  4. Free Cooling Finned Tube heat Exchanger Figure1: Heat Exchanger (Finned Tube)

  5. Ideal Vapor Compression Cycle Figure 2A: Vapor compression cycle Figure 2B: Ideal Vapor Compression Cycle COP = Coeffecient of performance COP(refrigeration)= Heat absorbed/Work supplied COP(Heat pump) = Heat out/Work supplied =m(ref)*(H1-H4)/Win = m(ref)*(H2-H3)/Win .

  6. Real Vapor Compression Cycle Figure 2D: Vapor compression Cycle with subcooling and superheating • With sub cooling of the liquid, refrigerating effect and COP increases without increasing the work requirement but for superheating COP may increase, decrease or remain unchanged . It depend on the range of pressure of the cycle. • Decrease in inlet pressure decreases the refrigeration effect and increases the work of compression. The effects of these two lead to decrease the COP while increase in discharge pressure required more work from compressor and decline in COP.

  8. Problem Solution • Sequential Method (by using Fmincon in Matlab environment) • Equation based -(By using Gams with Mixed Integer Non Linear Programming) -(By using Aspen Plus, only simulation of the selected cases without optimization)

  9. Future Plan • To study the cooling storage tank with air heat exchanger. • To study the complex heat exchanger network system for the improvement in integration by varying size and optimizing cost of the process. • Multiobjective optimization.
