First Year Analysis of Industrial Energy Conservation in Texas A&M's Energy Analysis and Diagnostic Center Program
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Texas A&M University's Energy Analysis and
Diagnostic Center (EADC) performed 15 energy
audits of small- to medium-size manufacturing
plants during its first year. The EADC program
is funded by the United States ...
Cogeneration- The Rest of the Story
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Everyone is praising the daylights out of cogeneration
these days. And while it may be the best energy system
design, there are numerous questions that should be asked
before anyone jumps on the bandwagon. We are ...
Revitalizing Your Energy Program
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Saving energy no longer enjoys the popularity it once did.
Most companies have drastically reduced the scope of their
energy programs and the personnel committed to that task.
The purpose of this paper is to illustrate ...
Marketing Quality Energy Awareness
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Marketing and quality concepts were utilized in
developing an employee awareness plan to facilitate
long term employee participation that improved
energy efficiency 15%. The plan was successfully
introduced on a test ...
Energy Savings by Use of Disk/Donut Baffling in Tubular Heat Exchangers
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
The use of segmental baffling in shell-and-tube heat
exchangers has become standard design practice, and process
heat transfer specialists recognize that such baffling is the basis
for most design procedures. Data from ...
Electric Rate Alternatives to Cogeneration
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
This paper discusses electric rate
alternatives to cogeneration for the industrial
customer and attempts to identify the effects on
the utility company, the industrial customer as
well as remaining customers. It is ...
A Unified and Integrated Energy Management System for HVAC Spaces and Power House
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
This paper describes a totally integrated energy
management system throughout the plant and facilities.
The equipment involves: the power plant (boilers,
cogeneration turbines, chillers); HVAC of buildings; air
handling ...
Why Condensing Steam Turbines are More Efficient than Gas Turbines
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Consider the following questions:
1. Which is bigger, a nickel or a dime?
2. Which weighs more?
3. Which is worth more?
The answers are obvious: a nickel is bigger and it weighs
more, but a dime is worth more. So size ...
Recent Developments in High Temperature Superconductivity
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
New material systems and the experimental
progress of high temperature superconductivity are
briefly reviewed. We examine both oxides and non-oxides
which exhibit stable and/or unstable
superconductivity at high temperatures.
An Evaluation of the Impact of Surface Coatings on the Heat Transfer in High Temperature Ceramic Recuperators
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Engineering ceramics, particularly
silicon carbide (SiC), are increasingly
being used as materials in high temperature
recuperators for preheating combustion
air from furnace exhaust gases. As
typical flue gases from ...
