Superposition, A Unique Cogeneration Opportunity
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
Industrial steam systems provide opportunities for the economic cogeneration of heat energy and shaft power. Progressive plant owners and managers have utilized these potentials. Too often opportunities are not exploited. ...
Design for, and Evaluation of Life Cycle Performance
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Project evaluation necessarily requires
performance estimates over the project life
cycle. In contrast to new and clean conditions,
extended life performance inherently
introduces additional complexity and variability
in ...
Alternatives to Industrial Cogeneration: A Pinch Technology Perspective
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Pinch Technology studies across a broad
spectrum of processes confirm that existing
plants typically consume 15-40% more thermal
energy than they should. Consequently, many
cogeneration schemes have been based on ...
Application of Pinch Technology in Refinery Retrofits
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
This paper reviews the application of pinch
technology in the identification of the most
attractive retrofit prospects in typical
refineries. In the first part of the paper,
methodology is described to identify ...
Heat Recovery Design Considerations for Cogeneration Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
The design and integration of the heat recovery section, which includes the steam generation, auxiliary firing, and steam turbine modules, is critical to the overall performance and economics of cogeneration, systems. In ...
Industrial Cogeneration Application
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Cogeneration is the sequential use of a single
fuel source to generate electrical and thermal
energy. It is not a new technology but an old,
proven one whose interest has been reawakened.
American Standard has had ...
Corporate Energy Management- Book II or What To Do For An Encore
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
This paper presents an overview of
General Motor's energy efficiency
program over the past decades with
special emphasis on current activities
and a crystal ball look into the future.
Included is a description of the ...
Analysis of In-Plant Cogeneration Using a Microcomputer
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
The analysis of in-plant cogeneration opportunities requires quantification of several factors. These include, among others, the profiles of plant steam and electricity usage, the temperature and pressure of primary header ...
Energy Value vs. Energy Cost: A Fundamental Concept of Economics Applied to Cogeneration
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
The application of energy in its various forms to industrial operations nearly always involves a cost. The cost seldom equals the true value of the energy involved. In some instances, the value is many times the cost and, ...
Cogeneration Assessment Methodology for Utilities
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
A methodology is presented that enables electric utilities to assess the cogeneration potential among industrial, commercial, and institutional customers within the utility's service area. The methodology includes a survey ...
