Function Value-Based Multi-Objective Optimisation of Reheating Furnace Operations Using Hooke-Jeeves Algorithm

Improved thermal efficiency in energy-intensive metal-reheating furnaces has attracted much attention recently in efforts to reduce both fuel consumption, and CO2 emissions. Thermal efficiency of these furnaces has improved in recent years (through the installation of regenerative or recuperative bu...
