    • The Exergy Concept Beyond the Academic Environment 
      El-Sayed, Y. M. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
      The lack of the adequate data base for thermodynamic properties and the computational burden of exergy analysis are two major barriers to the second law analysis of industrial processes. In this paper the essential ...
    • Expanding the Industrial Assessment Center Program: Building an Industrial Efficiency Workforce 
      Trombley, D.; Elliott, R. N.; Chittum, A. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2009-05)
      Energy efficiency provides an unequaled opportunity for manufacturing companies to reduce operating costs. Energy efficiency improvements not only lead to reduced energy costs, they can lead to even greater improved ...
    • Expansion Joint Concepts for High Temperature Insulation Systems 
      Harrison, M. R. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1980)
      As high temperature steam and process piping expands with heat, joints begin to open between the insulation sections, resulting in increased energy loss and possible unsafe surface temperatures. Many different expansion ...
    • Experience with 113 Retrofit Insulation Surveys 
      Webber, W. O. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
      We have surveyed 113 plants for thirteen clients. The results of 21 recent surveys at today's average fuel price, show an average project scope generation of $151,000 while saving about 5MMBTU/hour with a 72% DCF rate ...
