    • Effective Steam Trap Selection/Maintenance - Its Payback 
      Garcia, E. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
      In oil refineries and petrochemical plants large number of steam traps are used to discharge condensate from steam mains, tracers and process equipment. Early efforts on steam traps focused almost exclusively on their ...
    • Industrial Plant Objectives and Cogeneration System Development 
      Kovacik, J. M. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
      The development of a cogeneration system requires a definition of plant management's objectives in addition to process energy demands. And, these objectives may not be compatible with options that will yield the most ...
    • Selecting Fractionators for Product Composition Control 
      Griffin, D. E.; Anderson, J. E. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      The benefits resulting from computer control of fractionators have been proven in many installations. These benefits include energy savings, increased throughput, higher recovery product upgrade and smoother operation. As ...
    • Selection and Evaluation of Energy Management and Control Systems 
      Moderow, R. R. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)
      1. Why have many Energy Management and Control (EMC) systems failed to be truly cost effective? 2. What are the inherent problems in the selection of an EMC system? 3. What should an EMC system have to offer before being ...
    • The Selection and Use of Fireside Additives on Industrial Boilers 
      Radway, J. E. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1981)
      As energy prices have escalated and fuel quality deteriorated, fuel chemicals have found increasing acceptance as tools for improving efficiency and reliability of combustion systems. Though application of fuel additives ...
    • Why the Accuracy of Analytical Instrumentation Affects Boiler Combustion Efficiency 
      McFadden, R. W. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
      Combustion trim control systems are utilized to maximize the combustion efficiency of a boiler. The type and cost of a fuel, as well as the size of a boiler, should be considered when selecting the type of combustion trim ...
