Abstract
The paper describes an optimum design method of a two-column radiator of central heating with the given structure based on heating capacity per unit mass, building depth and heating capacity per unit length. Th e optimization problem is reduced to finding the maximum of the scales function in a 8-dimensional space bounded by 7 heating, stress and de sign inequality constraints and one/two special constraints for double /single-objective optimization problem, respectively. In a numerical e xample, the existing radiator has been optimized and the polyoptimum-p referred design has been selected.
