(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)The study shows that it is feasible to equip a chlorine-caustic plant with thermionic cogeneration. Thermionic combustors replace the existing burners of the boilers used to raise steam for the evaporators, and are capable ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory, 1988-09)"The Babcock & Wilcox Company (B&W) has completed a program to design, construct, install, and field test a ceramic-based high-temperature burner-duct-recuperator (HTBDR) in an industrial setting. The unit was capable of ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)In the fall of 1973, the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRIY initiated a program for design and evaluation of alternate cogeneration systems. The primary objective of the study is to analyze the overall system (industry ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1981)A commercial foundry has been established which makes extensive use of fluid beds in the production of heat treated alloy steel castings. The castings are cooled immediately after solidification by fluidizing the mold sand ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1994-04)Packaged steam generators are widely used in process and power plants. They are also used as standby boilers in cogeneration/combined cycle plants. The general feeling among consultants, plant engineers and end users is ...

(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2013)This paper analyzes two methods to reduce residential energy consumption for a Net Zero home in Austin, Texas. The first method seeks to develop a control algorithm that actively engages environmental conditioning. The ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1995-04)This paper explores the effects of power system harmonics induced by non-sinusoidal loads on electrical distribution equipment. The first portion examines the harmonic phenomenon to more fully understand harmonic current ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)A 400 MW oil-fired boiler was fitted with new burner guns and accessories to burn coal/oil mixture (COM) for a 120 full-power burn-day demonstration. Coal unloading and storage, and COM preparation and storage facilities ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)High quality energy exhaust streams from U. S. industrial plants are estimated to have an energy equivalent of 2 to 3 million barrels of oil equivalent per day, or about 15% of total industrial energy consumption. The value ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)Cogeneration systems have been contributing to the profitability of many industrial plants for years. However, with the renewed interest in energy and conservation as the cornerstone of the National Energy Act, it is ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1997-04)Two flare systems used at separate units within a larger chemical complex were modified to improve overall performance and efficiency. One system was a standard enclosed ground flare; the other was a less-conventional ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)Today's energy availability and pricing structure has focused attention upon those design techniques which result in an improvement in the level of energy utilisation. Energy integration is one such technique, where this ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)Project evaluation necessarily requires performance estimates over the project life cycle. In contrast to new and clean conditions, extended life performance inherently introduces additional complexity and variability in ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)This paper describes the design of a base loaded 465 MW (net) combined cycle cogeneration plant designed to sell up to 1,150,000 lb/hr of steam to a chemical plant in Houston, Texas, and sell up to 550,000 kW of electric ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)A computer-based energy management system for marine applications is presented.
