Root Cause Analysis Of A Long Term Reliability Problem With Reciprocating Compressors In H2 Service.
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1998)
Three large reciprocating compressors in H2 makeup service had
been a chronic reliability problem for 30 years. Unit revisions
greatly compounded this issue by eliminating builtin spare
capacity. A Root Cause Analysis ...
A Methodology to Develop Monthly Energy Use Models From Utility Billing Data For Seasonally Scheduled Buildings: Application to Schools
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1998-12)
The measured energy savings from retrofits in buildings in the Texas LoanSTAR
program are determined as the difference between the energy consumption predicted by
a baseline model and the measured energy consumption ...
Motorola's Experience in the Climate Wise Program
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1998-04)
In 1996, Motorola's Austin, Texas semiconductor manufacturing sites joined EPA's Climate Wise program, a voluntary effort that encourages U.S. industry to take advantage of the environmental and economic benefits associated ...
Industrial Assessments and Why Your Plant Should Have One
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1998-04)
The "in-depth" assessment of a plant site and its facilities, services and manufacturing operations can help you make your plant cleaner, more productive and more energy efficient. This paper discusses the components of a ...
Industrial Assessments in the Cast Metals Industry: Common Problems and Opportunities
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1998-04)
Opportunities for cost savings in industrial plant operations can either be associated with systems that are common to most manufacturers or be industry specific. Examples of the former include lighting, air compressor ...
DoD Fuel Cell Demonstration Program: Energy Savings and Emissions Reductions to Date
