Xue-ling Qi, Ershi Qi, Hao Mu · 2011
This study built an economic model of the geothermal heating system by the annual cost method. The strengths of genetic algorithm and simulated annealing were integrated and utilized in the economic model. A case study verified that the optimized economic result and searching speed can be achieved by improved genetic algorithm.
