Its value is obtained as Q . Figure shows a sketch of the variation of Q with L and the minimum value is indicated. The problem can also be solved as a constrained one with the objective function and the constraint written as Q 2L 10L3 2 AT5 4 and L AT Therefore from Equation the optimum is given by the equations AT 5 4 2 15L1 2 XAT 0 4 2L 10 L3 2 AT1 4 XL 0 LAT These equations can be solved to yield the optimum as L m AT 140 Q W X It can be shown that if the constraint is increased from to the heat transfer rate Q becomes . an increase of . This change can also be obtained from the sensitivity coefficient Sc. Here Sc -X which gives the change in Q 498 Design and Optimization of Thermal Systems for a change of in the constraint. Therefore for a change of Q is expected to increase by . Example For the solar energy system considered in Example the cost U of the system is given by the expression U 35A 208V where A is the surface area of the collector and V is the volume of the storage tank. Find the conditions for which the cost is a minimum and compare the solution with that obtained in Example . Solution The objective function is U A V given by the preceding expression. A constraint arises from the energy balance considerations given in Example as AI 290 -100 1 I V Therefore A may be obtained in terms of V from this equation and substituted in the objective function to obtain an unconstrained problem as U 35 I . I 208V Minimum I 290 - 100 V or U 2 941167 208V Minimum Therefore U may be differentiated with respect to V and the .
