The Optimization of Large Scale Heating and Cooling Network

It is a question if large scale heating/cooling network could be applied in China economically, environmental protection and energy saving. Toward this question, this paper studied the optimization of large scale heating and cooling network. The components of the system are analyzed and modeled in detail including heating/cooling source, heating/cooling users and transmit system. And the system can be optimized through the way of Life Cycle Cost, which compared the cost of large scale heating and cooling system with conventional system. The optimization also takes efficiency and economy in to consideration.
