    • Singh, K. P. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      The concept of a "Divided-flow" heat exchanger is generalized by locating the shell inlet (or outlet) nozzle off-center such that the two shell sub-streams are unequal and traverse unequal flow paths. The governing equations ...
    • Fletcher, R. J. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      Energy is consumed, and wasted, in liberal amounts in the combustion processes which supply heat energy to boilers and process heaters. Close attention to combustion systems can be extremely beneficial: Optimum air to fuel ...
    • Solt, J. C. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      This paper traces the development of cogeneration systems in industry, and discusses some early applications. The effect of changing markets and economic conditions is evaluated and specific examples are presented to ...
    • Kumar, A.; Vasquez, R.; Crump, J. R. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      The conservation of energy in industrial operations is essential to meet national goals. In the short term, conservation is essentially the only option, not only to buy time to develop new reserves and alternative supplies, ...
    • Harr, K. S.; Hutto, F. B., Jr. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      A method has been developed for measuring heat losses from insulated systems in the field. While the measurements are not as precise as those made under laboratory conditions, they are more indicative of actual in service ...
    • Tipton, J. A. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      Bartlesville (Oklahoma) Energy Technology Center (BETC) engineers made a study of recycling waste heat from one of the Power Plant boilers. The study showed that a system could be designed that would reclaim this waste ...
    • Allaire, W. F. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      Of all of the issues involved in our national energy dilemma, the matter of conservation of energy has, without a doubt, received major attention. Much has been said on the subject and certainly a great deal has been written ...
    • Balls, B. W.; Agar, J. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      ANSI/API 2530 shows how natural gas volume and weight flow rates may be calculated from the differential pressure across an in-line orifice plate. AGA Report No.5 uses these equations and known relationships between specific ...
    • Worthley, C. M. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      This paper discusses the growing need for energy efficiency in industry and describes a new, packaged approach to fuel optimization through direct digital control and accurate in-stack measurement of combustion products. ...
    • Lopez, T. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      With fuel prices soaring, more and more companies are looking at energy management as a means to curb energy costs. Let's face it, our energy supply picture is improving but new energy will be expensive. Conservation, ...
    • Boyd, M. P. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      Deere & Company appreciates the opportunity to discuss energy management and conservation with you. Energy is a topic that will occupy our thoughts for many years to come and certainly will be in the forefront in the near ...
    • Troyan, J. E. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      Reporting of energy conservation progress, particularly by companies with a multiplicity of Plants and products, can be facilitated by application of data processing systems. Experience with the development and use of a ...
    • Hill, A. B.; Bevers, D. V. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      Infrared scanning equipment has been used at Amoco's Texas City refinery since 1971 as an inspection tool. A camera scans the field of view and focuses the infrared radiation on a detector which converts the infrared signal ...
    • Magnuson, E. E. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      Intent of this paper is to show how recovery of heat in hot waste gases reduces nation's energy requirements, reduces dependence on foreign fuels, results in quick payoffs on recovery equipment investments, helps maintain ...
    • Del Grande, M. R. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      In December 1973, the Bell System launched a comprehensive energy conservation program which includes immediate, intermediate, and long range steps. A computerized data base system was developed to permit monthly input of ...
    • Plaster, W. E. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      Immense amounts of energy are being thrown away every day in petroleum refineries, chemical plants, and throughout all types of industrial operations. Much of this energy is at temperature levels below 350OF and is typically ...
    • Gordon, J. B.; White, D. M. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      A major problem associated with energy conservation projects is how to estimate the financial savings associated with a reduction in energy consumption. Although many conservation projects can be implemented in a matter ...
    • Verneau, A. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      The use of Organic Rankine Cycle for waste heat recovery presents several characteristics which are analyzed in details. After a short comparison with steam cycles, the Organic Rankine Cycle is described : its simplicity ...
    • Greenwood, R. W. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
      Electric power bills can often be reduced by careful attention to the inter-relationship between your plant operations and the electric rate schedule on which your bill is based. The pattern of use of electricity by your ...
