Includes bibliographical references (leaves 153-157). Name inverted on t.p. This study presents a new technique for synthesizing heat and mass exchange networks. The method involves generating superstructures using the temperature/composition interval concept from the physical insight approach. The superstructures are partitioned into temperature/composition intervals using the supply and target temperatures/compositions of either the hot/rich or cold/lean set of streams. The opposite kind of streams are made to participate (float) in all the intervals defined. Their ability to exchange heat/mass in these intervals is however subject to thermodynamic feasibility. The resulting superstructure is optimised as a mixed integer non linear programming (MINLP) model. The superstructure is hot/rich streams based if hot/rich streams are used to define the intervals otherwise it is cold/lean stream based. 2014-07-31T11:09:22Z 2014-07-31T11:09:22Z 2007 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5315 eng application/pdf Department of Chemical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
