Abstract
This chapter presents the application of the TLBO and the ETLBO algorithms for the design optimization of a smooth flat plate solar air heater. The design results obtained by the TLBO and the ETLBO algorithms are found superior or competitive to the results given by GA, SA, and PSO algorithms.
