TES & District Heating: How to integrate heat pumps into your operation
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 [...]
Industrial Energy Efficiency: Productivity Benefits and Trend Solutions
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 [...]
6 Main Advantages of Using Seawater for District Cooling
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; [...]
The Physics Behind Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for Thermal Energy Storage
Thermal Energy Storage (TES) is a technology which allows the storage and transfer of thermal energy, either heat or cold. TES takes advantage of off-peak periods of electrical demand to produce [...]
An In-Depth Look at Each Component of the Industrial Refrigeration Cycle
The refrigeration cycle removes unwanted heat from one place and discharges that heat in another area. The process is accomplished, in short, by the pumping of refrigerant through a closed [...]
Maintenance of Industrial Refrigeration Systems for Best Performance
Maintenance of large-scale industrial refrigeration units is arguably at the top of the list when it comes to the reliability, performance, and efficiency of the equipment. Preventative [...]
Performance Evaluation of Turbine Inlet Air Cooling Plants
Turbine Inlet Air Cooling for Gas Turbines A gas turbine is a type of continuous internal combustion engine which converts natural gas, into mechanical energy. The turbines convert this [...]
7 Industry Applications for Refrigeration: From District Cooling to Data Centers
Industrial refrigeration isn’t air conditioning—it goes beyond that, both in scale and in the little details. Industrial refrigeration can be defined as the equipment and accessories projected to [...]
Turbine Cooling in Biomass Power Plants: Changing the Power Generation Model
The power production industry is changing. Increasingly, we encounter environmental challenges like climate change and the greenhouse effect, as well as the decline of fossil fuels reserves. This [...]
