A Study of Adjustable Speed Drive Applications for Pumps
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
We have undertaken a survey and analysis of potential ASD applications for pumps in U.S. industry. Concentration was on the five industry segments that consume the greatest amount of pumping HP: electric utilities, pipelines, ...
Sandjet- A New Alternative for Cleaning Furnace Tubes
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1981)
Energy management in modern refineries is becoming more difficult as the real cost of in-house and purchased fuel escalates and the quality of feed stocks decreases. Furnace tube maintenance has been made more complex by ...
Insulation of Pipe Bends Improves Efficiency of Hot Oil Furnaces
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1999-05)
Thermodynamic analyses of processes indicated low furnace efficiencies on certain hot oil furnaces. Further investigation, which included Infrared (IR) thermography testing of several furnaces, identified extremely hot ...
Energy Consumption and Potential for Energy Conservation in the Steel Industry
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
The domestic steel industry, being energy-use intensive, requires between 4 and 5 percent of total annual domestic energy consumption. More than two-thirds of total steel industry energy, however, is derived from coal. ...
Development of the Reradiant Recuperator
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
This presentation covers the development of a new concept in radiation type recuperators. This new concept will increase the efficiency of standard conventional radiant recuperators and will provide increased energy savings ...
Load Management - A Better Way
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)
Ohio Edison Company serves about 800,000 customers in Ohio and Pennsylvania, making it one of the 20 largest electric utilities in the nation. The 'cost of service' concept has been basic to rate design throughout the ...
Energy and Demand Savings from Implementation Costs in Industrial Facilities
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2000-04)
The twenty-five most frequently suggested
energy saving assessment recommendations in the
Industrial Assessment Center program national
database were examined using linear regression
techniques to correlate between ...
Application of Energy Saving Concepts to LPG Recovery Plants
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)
Raw LPG extraction plants, designed prior to the 73/74 steep energy rise, offer opportunities for application of energy saving concepts.
Many plants designed to recover raw LPG from associated gases and built prior to ...
Energy Efficiency of Phthalic Anhydride Plants
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)
Developments in catalyst technology have played a major role implementing phthalic anhydride process improvements.
Steam turbines yield large energy savings, and are flexible in achieving a process heat/energy balance. ...
Reduced Energy and Maintenance Costs Using Polyurethane as a Replacement Roof System
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
Reduction in maintenance and allied costs was the number one priority when Texas A&M University first considered polyurethane foam as a replacement roof for existing buildings. An investigation revealed
that when properly ...
