(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1980)The design, operating characteristics, and energy savings from an energy recovery system employed on a potato chip fryer which became operational in December, 1979, is discussed. The design incorporates a modification to ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)After evaluating numerous waste heat sources and heat pump designs for energy recovery, we have become aware that a great deal of confusion exists about the economics of heat pumps. The purpose of this article is to present ...

(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1980)This paper discusses actual design and modifications for increased system efficiency and includes reduced chilled liquid flow during part load operation, reduced condensing and increased evaporator temperatures for reduced ...
-
(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 ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)The optimum performance of a distillation system can be evaluated by examining the product purities, the product recoveries, and the system's capability to respond to small or large, expected or unexpected, plant disturbances. ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)For any given heat source, only a portion of the thermal energy may be converted into useful work. The amount of energy which may be converted from any form into mechanical energy is referred to as exergy. The ratio ...
