Nonlinear topology optimization of District Heating Networks: A benchmark of a mixed-integer and a density-based approach KU Leuven
The widespread use of optimization methods in the design phase of District Heating Networks is currently limited by the availability of scalable optimization approaches that accurately represent the network. In this paper, we benchmark two different approaches to nonlinear topology optimization of District Heating Networks in terms of computational cost and optimality gap. We compare a combinatorial approach, which directly solves a ...
