Simultaneous synthesis of work exchange networks with heat integration (2014)
Journal Article
Onishi, V. C., Ravagnani, M. A., & Caballero, J. A. (2014). Simultaneous synthesis of work exchange networks with heat integration. Chemical Engineering Science, 112, 87-107. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ces.2014.03.018

The optimal integration of work and its interaction with heat can represent large energy savings in industrial plants. This paper introduces a new optimization model for the simultaneous synthesis of work exchange networks (WENs), with heat integrati...

Simultaneous synthesis of heat exchanger networks with pressure recovery: Optimal integration between heat and work (2013)
Journal Article
Onishi, V. C., Ravagnani, M. A. S. S., & Caballero, J. A. (2014). Simultaneous synthesis of heat exchanger networks with pressure recovery: Optimal integration between heat and work. AIChE journal, 60(3), 893-908. https://doi.org/10.1002/aic.14314

The optimal integration between heat and work may significantly reduce the energy demand and consequently the process cost. This article introduces a new mathematical model for the simultaneous synthesis of heat exchanger networks (HENs), in which th...

Mathematical programming model for heat exchanger design through optimization of partial objectives (2013)
Journal Article
Onishi, V. C., Ravagnani, M. A., & Caballero, J. A. (2013). Mathematical programming model for heat exchanger design through optimization of partial objectives. Energy Conversion and Management, 74, 60-69. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enconman.2013.05.011

Mathematical programming can be used for the optimal design of shell-and-tube heat exchangers (STHEs). This paper proposes a mixed integer non-linear programming (MINLP) model for the design of STHEs, following rigorously the standards of the Tubular...
