Energy optimization of Multiple Stage Evaporator system using Water Cycle Algorithm
Drishti Yadav, Om Prakash Verma
Abstract
Steam Economy of 7.092 and Steam Consumption of 1.919 kg/s. Moreover, a comparative analysis of the results with previous literature and real-time plant estimates reveal that the hybrid model offers improvement of 52.84% in Steam Economy and reduction in Steam Consumption by 28.13% when compared to the real plant data.
