New Developments in Storage and Handling of Biomass
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
An extensive research project to derive
guidelines for the design of a reliable
bin-feeder system for biomass materials has been
completed. The new system uses a converging
mass flow hopper with a much smaller outlet ...
Microcomputer Analysis of Pumping System Performance
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
With today’s emphasis on efficient use and conservation of energy, selecting the correct pump for a given application requires not only a concise performance evaluation but also detailed economic analysis. A microcomputer ...
The Effect of Variable Quality Fuels on Cogeneration Plant Performance
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
The variable energy characteristics of solid wastes,
biomass and other low grade fuels, when utilized in
cogeneration applications, introduce several additional
plant design considerations. The effects of
longer term ...
Low Temperature Heat Recovery for Boiler Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Low temperature corrosion proof heat exchangers
designed to reduce boiler flue gas temperatures to
150°F or lower are now being commercially operated
on gas, oil and coal fired boilers. These heat
exchangers, when ...
Harvesting Residuals-Economic Energy Link
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
A description of systems used in integrated
harvesting of quality and unmerchantable trees is
outlined for three areas in New Brunswick, Canada.
The silvicultural benefits and the use of residues
as an alternative to ...
Design for, and Evaluation of Life Cycle Performance
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Project evaluation necessarily requires
performance estimates over the project life
cycle. In contrast to new and clean conditions,
extended life performance inherently
introduces additional complexity and variability
in ...
