Abstract
This chapter presents the application of TLBO and ETLBO algorithms for the Thermoeconomic optimization of a shell and tube condenser. The objective function considered is minimization of total cost of the condenser. Five design parameters are considered for the optimization. It is shown that by selecting the optimal design parameters, the total cost of the condenser is reduced using the TLBO and ETLBO algorithms as compared to the design parameters suggested by the GA and PSO algorithms.
