Impact of CFC Regulations on Environmental System Design and Operation
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)
As a society, we have grown increasingly dependent on a group of chemicals broadly referred to as CFC's. These compounds play an essential role in a surprising number of applications including commercial, industrial and ...
Intelligent User Interfaces for Expert System Applications in Power Plants
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)
This paper describes how an expert system shell has been integrated into an interactive tool-kit which is tailored for the development of easy to use graphical environments. The result is that the expert system technology ...
Environmental Impact on Applied Technology- Global Warming CFCs & VOCs
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)
Hardly a day goes by that the threats to our environment are not brought to our attention. Whether you are following oil spills, groundwater contamination, global warming, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) or volatile organic ...
There's More to Managing Energy than Saving BTUs
(Energy System Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)
It's time to broaden our thinking in the energy world. Conserving
energy means more than saving Btu's of fuel gas-improving
yields and reducing waste should be vital parts of any conservation program. This paper will ...
Firing Excess Refinery Butane in Peaking Gas Turbines
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)
New environmentally-driven regulations for motor gasoline volatility will significantly alter refinery light ends supply/demand balancing. This, in turn, will impact refinery economics. This paper presumes that one outcome ...
