The GTE Ceramic Recuperator for High Temperature Waste Heat Recovery
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
GTE Products Corporation has developed a high temperature compact cross-flow ceramic recuperator that is capable of recovering energy from relatively clean furnace exhaust gases at temperatures up to 2500 F by preheating ...
A Cross-Flow Ceramic Heat Recuperator for Industrial Heat Recovery
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1980)
With increasing fuel costs, the efficient use of fuel is very important to the U.S. process heat industries. Increase in fuel usage efficiency can be obtained by transferring the waste exhaust heat to the cold combustion ...
Metal Hydride Chemical Heat Pumps for Industrial Use
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
Hydriding alloys are intermetallic absorbent compounds which have the remarkable quality of absorbing very large quantities of hydrogen gas per unit volume of metallic powder. The absorption and desorption of hydrogen are ...
Estimation of Fuel Savings by Recuperation of Furnace Exhausts to Preheat Combustion Air
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1980)
The recovery of waste energy in furnace exhaust gases is gaining in importance as fuel costs continue to escalate. Installation of a recuperator in the furnace exhaust stream to preheat the combustion air can result in ...
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 ...
