McKellar, M., D. Tree, AND J. Hamilton. DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION OF A REFRIGERATION SYSTEM. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, D.C., EPA/600/A-92/135 (NTIS PB92195973), 1991.

Description:

The paper discusses the design and optimization of a refrigeration system, using a mathematical model of a refrigeration system modified to allow its use with the optimization program. he model was developed using only algebraic equations so that it could be used with the optimization program and keep the computer run time to reasonable values. he paper describes the changes to the model, describes the optimization program strategy, and gives some preliminary results of some of the optimization studies. lthough not report in the paper, the model results, where possible, were compared to experimental data.
