Research on multi-objective parameter optimization of split flow dual flash thermodynamic cycle

Abstract

In addition to considering the intermediate pressure variables, the split flow double flash thermodynamic cycle also needs to consider the operating conditions and split flow coefficient of the cycle. Traditional algorithms require too much computation and have a longer response time. Faced with sudden operating conditions or changes in production conditions, it is difficult to quickly re-optimize the intermediate parameters of the split flow double flash thermal cycle and carry out corresponding system control. This article uses intelligent optimization algorithms instead of global search methods to optimize multi-objective parameters in a split flow double flash thermodynamic cycle. By summarizing and analyzing the characteristics of algorithms such as SIO, EA, and ANN, it is believed that the GWO algorithm in the SIO class is the most suitable for multi-objective parameter optimization of the split flow double flash thermal cycle. It is combined with the SA optimization algorithm to propose the SA-GWO algorithm with faster optimization speed and higher optimization accuracy, taking the initial position of the wolf pack as the optimization objective. Combined with the cycle thermodynamic model, a multi-objective parameter optimization model for the split flow double flash thermal cycle is established.
