Optimization of Parameters for FTS Kinetic Model by Genetic Algorithm Han Rui feng, Zhang Yong kui＃ (Xinzhou Teacher’s University, Xinzhou 034000 ＃Computer Science Department, Shanxi University, Taiyuan 030006) Abstract Detailed kinetic model is one of the most important basic research items for Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis(FTS). LM(Levenberg-Marquardt) algorithm is used a lot in estimating parameters of the kinetic model. However, as an unlimited algorithm, LM often makes an inaccurate conclusion because of parameters exceeding the limit. Its computation greatly depends on the initial point, and easily falls into non-global optima. It is a new attempt to apply Genetic Algorithm(GA) to the solutions of optimization problems of FTS parameters. The conclusion comes that GA can be applied to such problems, which having obtained three-comparatively-satisfying-group results of parameter-estimating through a number of systemic tests.
