(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
Dean Witter Reynolds has been actively involved in all aspects of project financing. This paper discusses the needs and concerns of equity investors and lenders in financing energy projects. The paper reviews types of ...
Industrial Plant Objectives and Cogeneration System Development
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
The development of a cogeneration system requires a definition of plant management's objectives in addition to process energy demands. And, these objectives may not be compatible with options that will yield the most ...
Recirculation of Factory Heat and Air to Reduce Energy Consumption
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
Two methods for achieving substantial energy savings through recirculation techniques are discussed:
1. Air cleaning methods that can be used to recover the energy content of previously-exhausted ventilation air in many ...
The Use of Hollow Plastic Balls as Energy Conservation Devices in Heated Open Tanks
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
The problem of heat losses from open liquid filled tanks is as old as industry itself. This paper will present the advantages of using an insulating blanket of hollow plastic spheres as a mechanism to conserve this type ...
Why Insertion Turbine Meters are Replacing Orifice Plates for Steam Flow Measurement
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
Flow measurement is a complex and application related discipline. It borders on being an art rather than a science, and as such it has developed its own mystique, traditions and customs. While it is true that no meter is ...
Energy Conservation Design Features of the ARCO Metals Logan County Aluminum Process Complex
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
ARCO Metals Company (Formerly Anaconda Aluminum Company) is proceeding as scheduled with the construction of a $400 Million aluminum processing complex in Logan County, Kentucky. When the initial construction phase is ...
Protecting Your Precious Recuperators in High Temperature Processes
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
Recuperators are very useful heat exchangers that recover waste heat from products of combustion (poc) in a furnace stack and give them back to the heating operation in the form of preheated combustion air for the burners. ...
Can You Afford Heat Recovery?
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
Increasing fuel costs have forced industry to look at ways to conserve energy. Preheating combustion air by utilizing the wasted heat in the flue gas can result in significant fuel savings.
The attractiveness of the ...
A Study of Adjustable Speed Drive Applications for Pumps
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
We have undertaken a survey and analysis of potential ASD applications for pumps in U.S. industry. Concentration was on the five industry segments that consume the greatest amount of pumping HP: electric utilities, pipelines, ...
How to Improve Productivity with Energy-Efficient Motors
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
A major concern of manufacturers today is how to improve productivity to remain competitive, catch-up with manufacturers who have already made significant productivity gains, or prevent foreign inroads in their markets. ...
