Conserving Energy by Recovering Heat from Hot Waste Gases
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
Intent of this paper is to show how recovery of heat in hot waste gases reduces nation's energy requirements, reduces dependence on foreign fuels, results in quick payoffs on recovery equipment investments, helps maintain ...
Energy Conservation in the Bell System
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
In December 1973, the Bell System launched a comprehensive energy conservation program which includes immediate, intermediate, and long range steps. A computerized data base system was developed to permit monthly input of ...
Making Use of Low-Level Heat
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
Immense amounts of energy are being thrown away every day in petroleum refineries, chemical plants, and throughout all types of industrial operations. Much of this energy is at temperature levels below 350OF and is typically ...
Electric Power Costs in Texas in 1985 and 1990
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
A major problem associated with energy conservation projects is how to estimate the financial savings associated with a reduction in energy consumption. Although many conservation projects can be implemented in a matter ...
Waste Heat Recovery by Organic Fluid Rankine Cycle
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
The use of Organic Rankine Cycle for waste heat recovery presents several characteristics which are analyzed in details.
After a short comparison with steam cycles, the Organic Rankine Cycle is described : its simplicity ...
Cut Your Power Bills
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
Electric power bills can often be reduced by careful attention to the inter-relationship between your plant operations and the electric rate schedule on which your bill is based. The pattern of use of electricity by your ...
BTU Accounting for Industry
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
Today, as never before, American industry needs to identify and control their most critical resources. One of these is energy. In 1973 and again in 1976, the American public and business was confronted with critical energy ...
Rate of Industrial Conservation - Petroleum Refining, Chemicals and Pulp and Paper Manufacture
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
This paper considers three related questions: 1) What are the primary economic driving forces which determine the rate of industrial energy conservation? 2) How much industrial energy conservation has been achieved over ...
Incentives of Sootblowing
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
The major theme of this paper is to emphasize the need and identify the measures necessary to maintain boiler or heater tube surfaces in a reasonably clean condition in order to attain the maximum possible overall system ...
Waste Steam Recovery
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
An examination has been made of the recovery of waste steam by three techniques: direct heat exchange to process, mechanical compression, and thermocompression. Near atmospheric steam sources were considered, but the ...
