Case History of Reapplication of a 2500 KW Steam Turbine/Gear Drive Generator
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
In today' s equipment market more and
more projects are turning toward
existing equipment to justify a
project. New equipment's delivery time
and/or capital cost can keep a good
project "grounded".
In the turbomachinery ...
Cooperative Efforts to Introduce New Environmental Control Technologies to Industry- A Case Study for Brayton Cycle Heat Pump Technology
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
New environmental control technologies
are rare, partly because it requires a very
large expenditure of money, people and
resources, and a commitment over an extended
period of time. The Brayton Cycle Technology
for ...

Evaluating Utility System Operations Using APLUS
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
The steam system at a recycled paper
fiberboard plant in Texas was evaluated
using APLUS. These simulations identified
inefficiencies in the current operation
and so suggested more efficient
alternatives. The information ...

(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
Application of advanced control
techniques to a two-shell, two- pressure
distillation column has yielded stable
operation with reduced utility consumption
and increased capacity. Prior to the
application of advanced ...
Refrigerants in Transition
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
The massive growth of air conditioning and
refrigeration has been a direct result of the
development of a class of chemicals called chlorofluorocarbons
that were thought to be inert, non-toxic
and friendly, and were ...
