This session offers a select group of recently published papers from the ASHRAE HVAC&R Research Journal regarding new developments in optimization technology to include cost optimization for a large-scale hybrid central cooling plant that uses a realistic nonlinear complex cost structure and examines the trade-off between chiller operations using different energy sources, the peak loads calculation in TRNSYS and EnergyPlus, and an analytical solution for an optimum fin shape.
