Heat Integrate Heat Engines in Process Plants
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
This paper presents a novel method for the
integration of heat engines into total processes to
effect large energy savings. Paybacks are often
short. The method is applicable to new designs and
retrofits and is ...
Industrial Heat Pumps: Appropriate Placement and Sizing Using the Grand Composite
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Correct thermodynamic placement of heat pumps
is a necessary condition for optimality. The most
sophisticated equipment designs can do very little to
improve the cost-effectiveness of inappropriately
placed heat pumps. ...
Site-Wide Optimization Using an Operations Center
(Energy Systems Laboratory, 1988-09)
"Most industrial sites consist of more that one individual production unit. Whenever this is the case, there is a natural tendency to treat the operation and performance of each unit as one entity within its own right. ...
The Pinch Explosion
(Energy System Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
A dramatic growth in the range of
applications of pinch technology has
been seen in recent years. These
include increasingly sophisticated
analysis of heat exchanger network
design problems; resiliency tests; ...
ICI's Approach to Total Energy Savings on Ethylene Plants
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
Recent technological developments have led to the creation of the rigorous simulation models for ethylene plants which can be run in concert with advanced, thermodynamic “pinch” procedures. This new approach enables ...
Pinch Technology-Theory into Practice
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
This paper covers the fundamentals of pinch
technology and its application in practice. The
paper presents an overview of the approach to the
practical use of the technology and illustrates the
approach with a case study.
