ARANER is a worldwide engineering firm developing groundbreaking, custom solutions in commercial heating, cooling, and industrial refrigeration. We pride ourselves on our work in District Cooling due to its ability to solve the real issues of the future, including rising populations and temperatures[..]

Thermal energy storage (TES) systems have become popular in recent years and have taken many forms over that time. Some forms need energy, others require chemicals, and yet others may entail both. We consider using a Thermal Energy Storage system when a divergence exists between the thermal energy s[..]

Turbine Cooling is one of ARANER’s main areas of expertise, with ARANER having implemented projects throughout the world and particularly the Middle East, for big names like Saudi Aramco. Manuel Guerrero has been a Turbine Inlet Air Cooling (TIAC) Specialist with ARANER since 2014. To discover more [..]

District Cooling (DC) systems, an efficient system featuring a centralized cooling plant which serves a group of buildings, have grown increasingly popular as nations seek efficient ways to meet growing cooling demands. DC owes the rise in its popularity to itsproven ability to be as much as 50% mor[..]

Thermal Storage Benefits Thermal Energy Storage (TES) is a technology whereby thermal energy is produced during off-peak hours and stored for use during peak demand. TES is most widely used to produce chilled water during those off-peak times to provide cooling when the need for both cooling and pow[..]

During the refrigeration or industrial cooling cycle, heat is extracted from a cold system and thus needs to be rejected to a hot system. In order to achieve this, there are many heat rejection methods, and ARANER are specialists in the top 5 condensation technologies for heat rejection. First, the [..]

Growing Power Demands of the Middle East The power demands in the Middle East continue to grow exponentially as the population of the region grows. Other contributing factors to the ever-increasing power demands of the region include:

2019 is already halfway over, and with it, many trends in the Power Generation Industry seem to be underway. Natural gas-fired power plants continue to be on the rise with natural gas being readily available and reasonably priced in many areas of the world. Natural gas is expected to continue to hav[..]

Traditionally, the heating in homes and many commercial buildings has been provided by boilers burning fossil fuels. These methods were not only inefficient, but also have been responsible for the emission of substantial amounts of greenhouse gases. Many cities in Europe and throughout the world hav[..]

We live in a world that is grappling with problems related to a perpetually increasing population. Oil and gas alongside many other industries are on the receiving end of the effects of the growing global energy demand. The mix of challenges is characterized by volatile prices, stringent regulations[..]

All pressurized piping systems inevitably experience transient effects, whether due to normal or emergency events. Specifically, rapid flow changes during transient events generate propagating pressure waves which have both positive and negative phases, also referred to as water hammer, or in a gene[..]

Seawater has always been used as a practical resource for humankind in a wide extent. From the industries of fishing to medicine, it has then passed unavoidably through the energy field; electricity production or heat rejection are common practices in coastal industries. The latter mentioned applica[..]
