Research in Industrial Combustion Systems - Current and Future R&D
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
This paper briefly describes the
current R&D activity in industrial
combustion systems. The areas
covered are novel burner systems,
oxygen enriched systems, combustion
controls and sensors and unique
industrial process ...
Lower Cost Energy Options
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
Energy Metering Audit Procedure
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
This paper describes the recent audit of the
utility distribution meters in a petrochemical
plant. These meters measure the steam,
condensate, natural gas, water, nitrogen and air
flows to the different process units ...
The Role of the Consultant in Marketing Industrial Heat Pumps
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
This paper explores the role that a consultant
can play in the acceptance of applied heat pumps
by industry (the key word is "industry"). Unfortunately,
there are very few engineers in practice
today with expertise in ...
Energy Utilization in Fermentation Ethanol Production
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
The fuel ethanol industry has put into
practice several techniques for minimizing
energy requirements for ethanol manufacture.
Thermal energy usage in fermentation grain
ethanol plants has been reduced from the ...
Heat Recovery From Arc Furnaces Using Water Cooled Panels
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
In 1980-81, the John Deere Foundry at East
Moline underwent an expansion program that increased
its capacity by over 60%.
This expansion was centered around the melt
department where the four existing 13MVA electric
arc ...
Cost-Effective Gas-Fueled Cooling Systems for Commercial/Industrial Buildings and Process Applications
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
Gas Research Institute initiated a program in 1985 to develop cost-effective gas engine-driven cooling systems for commercial and industrial applications. Tecogen, Inc., has designed, fabricated, and tested a nominal 150-ton ...
Flame Spectral Analysis for Boiler Control
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
An instrument has been developed by Tecogen, Inc., to determine the combustion characteristics of individual burners in multiburner installations. The technology is based on measuring the emissions in the ultraviolet (UV) ...
The Economics of Antifoulant Application
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
The performance of heat integration systems
is normally quantified in terms of the amount of
heat that is recovered. In an effort to mitigate
the usual decrease in heat recovery with time due
to fouling of the heat ...
Cooling Towers, The Neglected Energy Resource
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
Loving care is paid to the compressors,
condensers, and computer programs of
refrigeration and air conditioning systems. When
problems arise, operators and engineers run
around in circles with expensive "fixes" , ...
