Abstrakt: The paper presents an approach to the optimal design of multi-stream heat exchangers used in low-temperature technologies. The design process consists in creating the computational model of multi-stream heat exchangers with heat transfer fluids described in the paper, analyzing and selecting optimality criteria, investigating the influence of all possible mutual flow directions and directly selecting optimal design and operating parameters according to the specified criteria. The process has been demonstrated on the example of a three-flow plate fin heat exchanger used in a natural gas liquefaction scheme. Elements of multi-criteria optimization have been applied. Two optimal variants have been obtained, the first one being in terms of energy indicators, the second one being in terms of productivity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
