    • Industrial Energy Auditing - A Short Course for Engineers 
      Witte, L. C. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      This paper describes an intensive five day short course, directed toward engineers currently working in industry, which provides the participants with the rudiments of industrial energy auditing. Experience has shown that ...
    • The Influence of Availability Costs on Optimal Heat Exchanger Size 
      Witte, L. C. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
      Optimizing heat exchangers based on second law rather than first law considerations ensures that the most efficient use of available energy is being made. Techniques for second-law optimizing heat exchangers have been ...
    • Second Law Optimization of Heat Exchangers 
      Witte, L. C. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
      A new method for optimizing heat exchangers is developed in this paper. It is based on second law efficiency relationships rather than on the traditional heat exchanger effectiveness concept. The cost of energy is based ...
    • Thermodynamic Efficiency of Heat Exchange Devices 
      Witte, L. C.; Shamsundar, N. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)
      The continued rise in the cost of energy 'has it imperative to augment the usual heat flow analyses for power plants, refineries, chemical plants and other energy intensive industries by adding analyses of available energy ...
    • The Thermodynamics of Energy Conservation 
      Witte, L. C. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
      This paper is part of a session dealing with the fundamentals of energy conservation. The paper is intended to be a tutorial for engineers who have not been trained in thermodynamics, or have not practiced recently and ...
