Abstract

The optimization of heat exchanger network can be expressed in a Mixed Integer Non-Linear mathematical Programming (MINLP) model. However, it demands huge computing power to solve a realistic heat exchanger network optimize problem. Nowadays graphic processing unit (GPU) can be very powerful for general purpose computation. Based on the CUDA framework, this paper presents a parallel computing framework for solving the MINLP problem. We concentrate on both parallel computing model and specific GPU programming level optimization. Tests on a simple MINLP problem is conducted and the results show the new solution has 40 times faster than the one running serially on CPU.
