Energy-exergy-economic-environmental (4E) analysis and multi-objective optimization of a cascade refrigeration system
The present work focusses on 4E analysis of a 50 kW cooling capacity cascade refrigeration cycle covering the aspects of energy, exergy, economic and environment analysis. The numerical investigation and the multi-objective optimization is carried out for the system using the refrigerant pair R170-R600a and R41-R600a. The refrigerant pair is selected based on the environmental implications in terms of GWP and ODP. Multi-objective optimization of the objective functions is carried out using a heat transfer search optimization algorithm to evaluate the optimal performance of the system. The effect of evaporator temperature, condenser temperature, LTC condenser temperature and LTC condenser temperature difference on the exergy efficiency and total cost of the system is studied. A set of multiple optimal solutions is presented using the Pareto optimal curve and TOPSIS criteria is employed to select the optimal operating condition. Compared to the refrigerant pair R170-R600a, the system with R41-R600a operates at better exergy efficiency and lower total cost. At the TOPSIS selected optimal condition, exergy efficiency and the total cost of the CRS is 63.5 % and 65,228 $/year for the refrigerant pair R41-R600a and 62.6 % and 67,690 $/year for R170-R600a, respectively. The distribution of variables shows that the effect of the evaporation temperature, condensation temperature and the LTC condenser temperature is profound in obtaining the optimal solution.
期刊介绍:
Thermal Science and Engineering Progress (TSEP) publishes original, high-quality research articles that span activities ranging from fundamental scientific research and discussion of the more controversial thermodynamic theories, to developments in thermal engineering that are in many instances examples of the way scientists and engineers are addressing the challenges facing a growing population – smart cities and global warming – maximising thermodynamic efficiencies and minimising all heat losses. It is intended that these will be of current relevance and interest to industry, academia and other practitioners. It is evident that many specialised journals in thermal and, to some extent, in fluid disciplines tend to focus on topics that can be classified as fundamental in nature, or are ‘applied’ and near-market. Thermal Science and Engineering Progress will bridge the gap between these two areas, allowing authors to make an easy choice, should they or a journal editor feel that their papers are ‘out of scope’ when considering other journals. The range of topics covered by Thermal Science and Engineering Progress addresses the rapid rate of development being made in thermal transfer processes as they affect traditional fields, and important growth in the topical research areas of aerospace, thermal biological and medical systems, electronics and nano-technologies, renewable energy systems, food production (including agriculture), and the need to minimise man-made thermal impacts on climate change. Review articles on appropriate topics for TSEP are encouraged, although until TSEP is fully established, these will be limited in number. Before submitting such articles, please contact one of the Editors, or a member of the Editorial Advisory Board with an outline of your proposal and your expertise in the area of your review.
