The cost of the system consists of the capital cost of the equipment and the operating cost to satisfy the thermal loads. An efficient method is required for evaluating the operating costs when the configuration of the system is specified and the thermal loads are known. The operating cost of a particular configuration are obtained by solving a nonlinear program. The method is efficient since it consists of solving a sequence of single period models. date: 1991 type: Study Group Report type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en identifier: http://miis.maths.ox.ac.uk/miis/447/1/Air-handling-system-optimisation.pdf identifier: Mills, G.
