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 ...
Enhanced Customer/Utility Relations Through an EPRI Assisted Project
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1995-04)
The project discussed is an analysis, using Pinch Technology, of an expansion at Atlas Processing, a Pennzoil Products company located in Shreveport, Louisiana. The expansion involves addition of necessary units to produce ...
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 ...
Alternatives to Industrial Cogeneration: A Pinch Technology Perspective
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Pinch Technology studies across a broad
spectrum of processes confirm that existing
plants typically consume 15-40% more thermal
energy than they should. Consequently, many
cogeneration schemes have been based on ...
The Pinch Explosion
(Energy System Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
A dramatic growth in the range of
applications of pinch technology has
been seen in recent years. These
include increasingly sophisticated
analysis of heat exchanger network
design problems; resiliency tests; ...
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 ...
Pinch Technology-Theory into Practice
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
This paper covers the fundamentals of pinch
technology and its application in practice. The
paper presents an overview of the approach to the
practical use of the technology and illustrates the
approach with a case study.
