Management of Power Demand through Operations of Building Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2009-11)
In hot summers, the demand for electrical power is dominated by the requirements of the air-conditioning and lighting systems. Such systems account for more than 80% of the peak electrical demand in Kuwait. A study was ...
A Louisiana Refinery Success Story
(Energy Systems Laboratory, 2009-05)
"Refining 155,000 barrels of crude oil daily, a Louisiana plant markets oil products to gas stations in at least 26 states, including Washington, D.C. The plant uses 8,538 steam traps with 1,200-, 600-, 250-, 75-, 40- and ...
Energy Savings in Industrial Buildings
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2009-05)
The industrial sector accounts for more than one-third of total energy use in the United States and emits 28.7 percent of the country’s greenhouse gases. Energy use in the industrial sector is largely for steam and process ...
Industrial Heat Pumps- A Reexamination in Light of Current Energy Trends
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2009-05)
Heat pumps have been used for nearly one hundred years mostly providing heating and cooling for homes and residential settings. However, industrial heat pumps are also used and may be driven by waste heat streams from the ...
