SOME RESULTS IN GRAPH THEORY
1 ) A graph is any connection of points, some pairs of which are
connected by lines.
2 ) If a graph has p points and q lines, it is called a (p,q) graph.
points process and utility streams
lines heat exchangers
3 ) A path is a sequence of distinct lines, each are starting where
the previous are ends, e.g. AECGD in Fig. A.

SOME RESULTS IN GRAPH THEORY
4 ) A graph is connected if any two points can be joined by a path,
e. g. Fig. A
5 ) Points which are connected to some fired point by paths are said
to form a component, e. g.
Fig A has one component.
Fig B has two components.
6 ) A cycle is a path which begins and ends at the same point, e. g.
CGDHC in Fig. A.
7 ) The maximum number of independent cycles is called the cycle
rank of the graph.
8 ) The cycle rank of a (p,q) graph with k components is
q - p + k
A Result Based on Graph Theory
U = N+L-S
Where,
N = the total number of process and utility streams
L = the number of independent loops
S = the number of separate component in a network
U = the number of heat exchanger services
U = N+L-S

Umin = N - 1
where,
Umin = the minimum number of services
N = the total number of process and

Note,
U = N + L - S
§ PINCH DESIGN METHOD
RULE 1: THE “TICK-OFF” HEURISTIC
UMIN = N-1
- THE EQUATION IS SATISFIED IF EVERY MATCH
BRINGS ONE STREAM TO ITS TARGET TEMPERATURE

§ PINCH DESIGN METHOD
RULE 2: DECOMPOSITION
- THE HEN PROBLEM IS DIVIDED AT THE PINCH INTO
SEPARATE DESIGN TASKS.
- THE DESIGN IS STARTED AT THE PINCH AND
DEVELOPED MOVING AWAY FROM THE PINCH.
