The shell and tube heat exchanger is one of the commonly used heat exchangers. Minimizing the cost required to manufacture these heat exchangers is one of the main objectives for designers and users. This study determined the necessary design parameters for a shell and tube heat exchanger to be manufactured with minimum cost using The Bees Algorithm (BA). These design parameters are the shell side inside diameter, the tube side outside diameter, and the baffle spaces. The system mathematical model is created to find the optimum values of these parameters, the necessary boundary conditions are determined, and an optimization study is carried out. The cost obtained by BA $ 11187.86 compared with GA $ 11190.17 and SPQ $ 18429.4 from the literature. It is observed that The Bees Algorithm (BA) gives successful results in the design of shell and tube heat exchangers.

“…The Bees algorithm is another important optimization technique for solving heat transfer problems. − Bozorgan et al improved the geometrical characteristics of a shell and tube heat exchanger (tube length, baffle spacing, tube internal and outer diameters, shell diameter, and pitch size) to maximize the heat transfer coefficient while minimizing overall pressure loss. They increased the heat transfer coefficient by 23% and reduced the overall pressure drop by 2% compared to the original shell and tube heat exchanger.…”

Heat loss is a major challenge in heat transfer problems. Several researchers have minimized heat loss for different heat transfer cases, focusing on one optimization technique; however, not all optimization techniques are suitable for a given problem. A limited number of studies have compared different techniques for a given problem under boundary conditions and constraints. This review revisits basic heat transfer problems and identifies a promising technique for each problem to minimize heat loss. The paper considers three techniques: nonlinear least-squares error (LSE), interior point linear programming (IPLP), and genetic algorithm. Two cases are studied: 1. heat loss optimization from cylindrical insulating surfaces and 2. laminar airflow on a heated plate. The results are compared for each technique, and a suitable technique is recommended for each considered case. Nonlinear LSE is found to be most suitable for case 1. IPLP and GA are recommended for the Case 2 problem. The average thermal conductivity is found to be 0.081 W/mK. The average insulation thickness is found to be 213.25 mm. This research will act as a basis for future research to justify and implement suitable techniques for different heat transfer problems.
