The Cost of Heat Exchanger Fouling in the U. S. Industries
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Fouling of heat exchangers costs the
U.S. industries hundreds of millions of dollars every year in increased equipment costs, maintenance costs, energy losses and losses in production. The designer of heat exchangers ...

The Impact of Heat Transfer Enhancement Techniques on Energy Savings in the U.S. Industry
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Since the mid-seventies, the manufacturing industries trend towards energy conservation has spurred both heat exchanger makers and users to try novel techniques for heat transfer enhancement. Augmentation techniques, applied ...
The Use of Metal Hydrides for Hydrogen Recovery from Industrial Off-Gas Streams
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
This paper describes the development
of a concept to utilize metal hydrides
to recover hydrogen from industrial
off-gas streams. The activity
included a survey of industrial waste
streams a selection of metallic
hydriding ...
An Evaluation of the Impact of Surface Coatings on the Heat Transfer in High Temperature Ceramic Recuperators
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Engineering ceramics, particularly
silicon carbide (SiC), are increasingly
being used as materials in high temperature
recuperators for preheating combustion
air from furnace exhaust gases. As
typical flue gases from ...
Application of Reversible Chemical Reactions for Temperature Amplification
(Energy System Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
In a recent survey of 108 industries in the U.S., it was found that large amounts of thermal energy at relatively low temperatures was discharged to the atmosphere through industrial effluents. For the purpose of thermally ...
