An Exact Algorithm for the Optimal Chiller Loading Problem and its Application to the Optimal Chiller Sequencing Problem
The optimal management of multiple chiller systems calls for the solution of the so-called optimal chiller loading (OCL) problem. Due to the interplay of continuous and logical constraints, OCL is an NP-hard problem, so that a variety of heuristic algorithms have been proposed in the literature. Her...
