Industrial Process Heat Pumps--Some Unconventional Wisdom
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
Recent research on the cost-effective use of
industrial process heat pumps challenges some popularly
held perceptions about the appropriate use of
this technology. Also challenged are some common
approaches to identifying ...
Heat Exchanger Network Targeting, Design and Analysis: The MIDAS Package
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
Recent work to consolidate
pinch-based procedures for targeting,
design and analysis of heat exchanger
networks (HENs) has focused on the
production of powerful, user-friendly
software. Advanced optimization
techniques, ...
Heat and Power Systems Design
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
The selection of heat and power systems usually
does not include a thorough analysis of the
process heating, cooling and power requirements.
In most cases, these process requirements are
accepted as specifications ...
Potential for Heat Pumps in the U.S. Process Industries
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
Two major criteria for successful
heat pump installations in process
plants are the "appropriate placement"
and "appropriate sizing" of the heat
pump, consistent with the thermodynamics
of the process. Failure to ...
Optimized Utility Systems and Furnace Integration
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
Conventional process design philosophy usually
results in utility systems being designed after
process design defines the Process/Utility
interface. Clearly, changing the process design
can result in different utility ...
Application of Pinch Technology in Refinery Retrofits
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
This paper reviews the application of pinch
technology in the identification of the most
attractive retrofit prospects in typical
refineries. In the first part of the paper,
methodology is described to identify ...
ICI's Approach to Total Energy Savings on Ethylene Plants
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
Recent technological developments have led to the creation of the rigorous simulation models for ethylene plants which can be run in concert with advanced, thermodynamic “pinch” procedures. This new approach enables ...
