Design And Full Load Testing Of A High Pressure Centrifugal Natural Gas Injection Compressor
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1979)
This paper discusses the design of a high pressure reinjection centrifugal compressor. This compressor was tested in the manufacturer’s shop under full load to simulate the field operating conditions in terms of inlet/discharge ...
Design, Performance And Operational Characteristics Of A 6500 Horsepower High Performance Industrial Gas Turbine
(Texas A&M University. Gas Turbine Laboratories, 1979)
This paper will describe the 570-K high performance industrial gas turbine and provide technical rationale for the design approach and performance limits. Construction details are discussed, including assembly of major ...
Self Contained Temperature Actuated Control Valves
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
There is a virtually unlimited potential for energy conservation by utilizing self contained temperature actuated valves. As steam costs soar it becomes more and more important to conserve feed stock dollars as well as the ...
Condensate Removal by Drain Orifice
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
Originally the Drain Orifice Assembly was developed to solve serious steam trap maintenance problems in Navy ship's high pressure systems. Installation was between two ANSI B16.5 Flanges. The high pressure systems operate ...
Energy Conservation Through Effective Steam Trapping
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
Fuel costs are rapidly escalating. The overall efficiency of any energy utilization must be improved immediately.
Steam traps - though a hardware item which received little attention can substantially effect the overall ...
A Utility View of Energy Conservation
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
Energy conservation, as viewed by the utility companies, is of real concern due to the energy situation and recent national energy legislation. The conversion programs of the electric utilities, particularly those in the ...
HVAC Energy Recovery Design and Economic Evaluation
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
ENRECO has prepared this paper on HVAC energy recovery to provide the engineer with an overview of the design engineering as well as the economic analysis considerations necessary to evaluate the potential benefits of ...
Fourteen Points for Energy Conservation in Lighting
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
Today, with spiraling costs, many designers choose lighting by selecting the least expensive components. As the sole design goal, this very often adds up to an expensive lighting system in terms of installed initial cost. ...
Using Signature Analysis for Maintenance Planning
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
Operating a plant at off-design conditions can incur many penalties, some immediate, some long range. An immediate penalty could be increased unit energy costs and possibly product quality deterioration. A long-range penalty ...
Instrumentation and Control of a Steam Plant Using a Microprocessor Based Controller
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
Two new heating plants for the campus of the Binghamton Psychiatric Center in Binghamton, New York, are being built. The two boiler plant buildings are approximately one-third of a mile apart. Plant A houses two 500 HP ...
