Abstract

The main goal of the researches is the development of new approaches, algorithms and numerical techniques for multi-objective optimisation of design of industrial induction heating installations. A multi-objective optimisation problem is mathematically formulated in terms of the typical optimisation criteria, e.g., maximum heating accuracy and minimum energy consumption. Various mathematical methods and algorithms for multi-objective optimisation, such as Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA-II) and optimal control alternance method, have been implemented and integrated in a user-friendly automated optimal design package. Several optimisation procedures have been tested and investigated for a problem-oriented mathematical model in a number of comparative case studies. A general comparison of the design solutions based on NSGA-II and alternance method leads to their good agreement in all investigated cases. The methodology developed is planned to be applied to more complex real-life problems of the optimal design and control of different induction heating systems.
