Optimal Airflow Control for Laboratory Air Handling Unit (LAHU) Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
An optimal airflow control method and procedure have been developed for laboratory air handing unit (LAHU) systems using linear optimization theories. The optimal airflow control minimizes the thermal energy consumption ...
A Cure for Corporate Alzheimer's
(Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center, 2002)
In 1983, DuPont sponsored the HCN Transportation and Safety Seminar. Attendees were representatives from hydrogen cyanide producers, shippers, and users from around the world. This was the beginning of the HCN Industry ...
Modeling Aerosol Rainout -- Effect of Droplet MassTransfer
(Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center, 2002)
The AIChE Center for Chemical Process Safety has coordinated research efforts aimed at characterizing and predicting the behavior of aerosols during accidental releases. Field tests designed to be used for validation of a ...
Automating Process Safety Management
(Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center, 2002)
In February of 1992 the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) promulgated the Process Safety Management Standard (PSM) for Highly Hazardous Chemicals. The stated objective of this standard is to prevent ...
Case Study: Anatomy of a Major Process Unit Explosion Investigation An Interdisciplinary Approach to Multiple Causes
(Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center, 2002)
This paper is a case study that describes an investigation of a large-scale chemical process unit explosion. The technical objective to determine what happened and why is driven by process safety and good engineering ...
Fire Hazard Involving Structured Packing Past Knowledge of Sulzer Chemtech
(Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center, 2002)
Performance Testing of Window Installation and Flashing Details
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
Protection of interface at windows and other
penetrations from rainwater intrusion is a
primary need of building structures. This is
especially true when the building is in a high
weather exposure location or in a climate ...
Results of CC Follow-Up in the G. Rollie White Building
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
An investigation into the increase of energy
consumption of G. Rollie White Coliseum was part
of the persistence project[1], which investigates the
savings in energy consumption of ten buildings that
were commissioned by ...
Optimization of Multi-Stack Exhaust Systems - New System Design Application
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
Both analytical and numerical optimization
methods have been developed to optimize multi-stack
exhaust systems for application in new system
designs. In these systems the combined airflow
capacity of the stacks equals the ...
Emerging Heat Exchanger Technologies for the Mitigation of Fouling in Crude Oil Pre-Heat Trains
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2002-04)
Over the last three years ESDU have been working with engineers from oil companies and the companies that serve them in order to produce a guide describing the current state of knowledge on fouling in pre-heat trains and ...
