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; ...
Review of Conservation Costs and Benefits: Five Years of Experience under the Northwest Power Act
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
In 1980, Congress passed the Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act (Public Law 96-501). In the Act, Congress mandated that conservation (i.e., improvements in energy efficiency that result in reduced ...
Utility System Simulation: A Nonlinear Approach
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Computer simulation of plant utility systems allows an
engineer to rapidly 1) analyze operation changes, 2) analyze
design changes, and 3) optimize the steam/electric system
for the lowest operating cost. MESA (Modular ...
A Versatile and Powerful Simulator for Design, Advanced Control and Expert Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
The usefulness of models of plant utility
systems largely depends on the capabilities of the
process system simulator which uses them.
SACDA has been engaged in a multi-year
development of a versatile and powerful ...
Monitoring Energy Losses
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Industrial power plants using fossil fuel to produce process steam and electrical energy must be operated at peak efficiency to minimize production costs. Monitoring the power plant operation sometimes takes second place ...
