(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)Boiler trim control, when it has been used at all, has been accomplished by the use of oxygen sensors. However, the oxygen sensor has limitation because it provides a fixed point on the sensible heat loss curve. A better ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)Alzeta Corporation has developed various process heating applications using the Pyrocore burner. Applications to immersion fluid heating have been in use for several years. An advanced process heater is also being ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1999-05)Advanced Process Management is a method to achieve optimum process performance during the life cycle of a plant through proper design, effective automation, and adequate operator decision support. Developing a quality ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2003-05)Cooling equipment, whether used to meet air-conditioning or process cooling loads, represents a large consumer of energy. Even more to the point, cooling loads and the associated cooling equipment energy consumption tend ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1999-05)The expectations for heat transfer fluid (HTF) system safety and reliability are continuing to increase. The challenges are many. Leaks produce vapors that ignite readily, fluid viscosity is very low, and many of the fluids ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)Gas Turbines operating in the United States are required to meet federally mandated emission standards. This article will discuss how General Electric's LM industrial aeroderivative gas turbines are meeting NOx ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2009-11)An energy efficiency metric for residential homes was developed to provide home-owners, realtors and builders a method to rate the energy efficiency of an existing house. To accomplish this, a web-based calculator was ...

-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)Expensive fan wrecks and down time occurs when couplings break or gearboxes self-destruct. A viable alternative eliminates shaft, coupling, and gearbox moving motor to ground level, driving a hydraulic pump transmitting ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)The required temperature and technique for condensing common industrial solvents from the exhaust air of drying ovens is explained. The benefits of the Air Cycle for this application are discussed. The operation of the ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)Congress is currently debating various options for a new clean air bill. Whatever the outcome, significant social and economic changes are sure to result. Texas will be affected to one degree or another. These effects must ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1996-04)The U.S. EPA is developing new maximum achievable control technology (MACT) rules, which include provisions for aboveground storage tanks (AST's). While each industry category will have its own MACT rule, the trend for ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory, 2008-12)Air-side economizer is broadly adopted in building HVAC design and operations. When the system is properly designed and the control sequence is properly implemented, air-side economizer provides significant energy savings. ...

-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1990-06)Cooling in industrial facilities has traditionally been performed by mechanical vapor compression units. While it remains the standard, recent concerns with the rising cost of electricity and environmental legislation ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-04)Before the year 2000, more than one quarter of U.S. businesses will be firing Alternate Fuels in their boiler systems. And, the trend toward using Process Gases, Flammable Liquids, and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC's), ...
