Optimal operating conditions and configurations for humidification–dehumidification desalination cycles

This article applies nonlinear programming techniques to optimize humidification–dehumidification (HD) desalination cycles for operating conditions that result in maximum gained output ratio (GOR). Closed air open water as well as open air open water cycles, each with either an air or a water heater...
