- Although much work has been done on the optimization of the recuperative heat exchangers, little attention has been paid to the optimization of rotary regenerative air preheater (RAPH) in coal-fired power plants. It is known that the ammonium bisulfate deposition (ABS) can adversely affect the safe operation of RAPH, so an improved Radian number was proposed to estimate the impact of ABS in the optimization of RAPH. The thermal hydraulic calculation program integrated with genetic algorithms was developed to conduct optimizations of RAPH. The design parameters included rotor radius, each fluid sector angle and each matrix layer height. The multi-objective optimization was carried out to maximize the effectiveness and to minimize the pressure drop from the perspective of users, while the single-objective optimization was performed to minimize the weight of the heat transfer elements from the perspective of manufacturers. The improved Radian number is more reasonable to reflect the ABS deposition compared with the original Radian number. The designer can estimate the ABS deposition status using the improved Radian number not only in the operating process but also in the design process of RAPH. The range of optimal solution becomes smaller but the rank of the Pareto solution stays unchanged with the decrease in the restriction of improved Radian number. The optimization with larger rotor radius restriction could obtain better Pareto results. The total weight of heat transfer elements could be reduced by at least 26.5% compared with that of the original design by using genetic algorithm.
