description Publicationkeyboard_double_arrow_right Article , Journal 2009Publisher:Elsevier BV Authors: C.E. Baukal; W.R. Bussman;Abstract Process heaters are typically located outside and subject to the weather. Although heaters are typically tuned at a given set of conditions, actual operating conditions vary significantly from season to season and sometimes even within a given day. Unfortunately, most heaters are not properly adjusted for actual operating conditions. Ambient air temperature, pressure and humidity all significantly impact process heater efficiency. This paper shows how changing ambient conditions can reduce efficiency if proper adjustments are not made. Combustion efficiency is related to air:fuel ratio and to air–fuel mixing. A general industry rule-of-thumb is that operating at 2–3% excess O 2 (dry basis) results in the best combination of efficiency and flexibility. At higher O 2 levels, efficiency is reduced because the additional O 2 and N 2 absorb heat, much of which exits the exhaust stack. At lower O 2 levels, efficiency can be substantially reduced because some fuel is uncombusted. Low O 2 levels can also lead to soot and coke buildup on process tubes reducing heat transfer to the process fluid and reducing efficiency. Several examples demonstrate how ambient conditions affect heater efficiency. Calculations and graphs for a wide range of operating conditions demonstrate how efficiency can be affected by changes in ambient conditions for process heaters.

Mumma;Abstract A criterion, based on optimization principles, for determining the SAT setpoint in VAV systems is presented. It is generally accepted that conventional SAT reset controls (SATRC), bounded by either space humidity or ductwork size, will save cooling and/or heating energy. How-ever, the ventilation consequences and penalty resulting from increased fan power have generally been overlooked. Ventilation is impacted since changes in the SAT setpoint change the primary airflow rate and the operation of economizer cycles, i.e. the distribution of fresh outdoor air (OA). These changes may result in extra energy demand and ventilation inefficiency if the reset criterion is not appropriate. This optimization concept simultaneously reduces energy consumption and meets ventilation requirements. Simulation results illustrate that the use of the optimized SATRC saves more energy than a conventional one.

Yelishala; Hameed Metghalchi; Yiannis A. Levendis;Abstract Propane (C3H8) is being considered as an alternative refrigerant, besides being used as an alternative fuel, because of its low Global Warming Potential and zero Ozone Depletion Potential. Using blends of C3H8 with CO2 as refrigerants, diminishes the fire safety concerns in case of accidental leak of this flammable substance in refrigeration applications. This paper reports on the effects of CO2 on laminar burning speed and flame instability of C3H8/air blends at elevated temperatures and pressures. The flame structures were investigated in a Schlieren system. The laminar burning speeds of C3H8/CO2/air mixtures were measured in a spherical chamber and were fitted by a power-law mathematical correlation. The one-dimensional flame code from Cantera with kinetic model was also used to predict laminar burning speed. The high-speed photography showed that CO2 inhibits the flame instability because of its hydrodynamic and diffusional-thermal effects. Results showed that the laminar burning speed decreased with increasing CO2 mole fraction in the mixtures and that CO2 promotes the flame stability. The high temperature C3H8 oxidation was governed by the reaction of H + O 2 = O + OH . The effects of CO2 on laminar burning speed were mainly determined by the reaction of CO 2 + H = CO + OH and the high energy capacity (specific heat) of CO2.

To discuss the problem from economics and business perspectives, this study proposes a new use of DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) as a methodology for unified (operational and environmental) assessment. A unique feature of the proposed approach is that it separates outputs into desirable and undesirable categories. Such separation is important because energy industries usually produce both desirable and undesirable outputs. This study discusses how to unify the two types of outputs under natural and managerial disposability. The proposed DEA approach evaluates various organizations by the three efficiency measures such as OE (Operational Efficiency), UEN (Unified Efficiency under Natural disposability) and UENM (Unified Efficiency under Natural and Managerial disposability). An important feature of UENM is that it separates inputs into two categories and unifies them under the two disposability concepts in addition to the proposed output separation and unification. This study incorporates an amount of capital assets for technology innovation, as one of the two input group, into the measurement of UENM. Then, it compares UENM with the other two efficiency measures. This study is the first research effort in which DEA has an analytical capability to quantify the importance of investment on capital assets for technology innovation. To confirm the practicality of the proposed approach, this study applies the three efficiency measures to a data set regarding manufacturing and non-manufacturing industries of 47 prefectures in Japan. This study empirically confirms the validity of Porter hypothesis in Japanese manufacturing industries, so implying that environmental regulation has been effective for betterment on the performance of Japanese manufacturing industries. Another important finding is that the emission of greenhouse gases is a main source of unified inefficiency in the two groups of industries. Therefore, Japanese industries, examined in this study, need to make their efforts to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution substances by investing in capital assets for technology innovation.

Heffington; G.E. Parks;Abstract We present estimates for the effective oxidation rates of methane over a wide range of equivalence ratios using Ar as primary diluent and CO or H 2 O as additives. The rate of disappearance of methane has been monitored in a fuel-rich CH 4 O 2 Ar mixture by direct measurements of the change in transmission for He-Ne laser radiation at 3.392 μ behind reflected shock waves. The rate of formation of water with time has been obtained in independent absolute i.r. emission measurements near 6.75 μ on stoichiometric CH 4 O 2 Ar mixtures with and without added water. We have found empirically that a number of data correlations may be used and that the overall rates of disappearance of CH 4 and of formation of H 2 O were the same during the post-induction period behind reflected shock waves. The rates of concentration changes with time to which we refer are average rates observed during the post-induction periods. The temperatures ( T max ) for which the oxygen-atom concentrations are a relative maximum were found to be close to the arithmetic means between the initial temperatures ( T 5 ) behind reflected shock fronts and the final equilibrium temperatures. The numerical values found for the correlation parameters as functions of the temperature during the post-induction oxidation are not sensitive to the prior admixture of CO or H 2 O but vary with mixture ratio. The overall methane conversion rates are directly useful in defining burner designs for the utilization of highly diluted mixtures (i.e. low-Btu gas systems) containing primarily CH 4 . Our results are not applicable to low-Btu gas mixtures containing such reactive species as H 2 or NH 3 .

Abstract This paper uses quantile regression to demonstrate how electricity price distributions are linked to fundamental supply and demand variables. It investigates the California electricity market (zone SP15) for selected trading hours using data from January 8, 2013 to September 24, 2016. The approach quantifies a non-linear relationship between the fundamentals and electricity prices, just as predicted by the merit order curve. Natural gas, greenhouse gas allowance prices and load all have a positive effect on electricity prices, with the effect increasing with the quantiles. In contrast, solar production and wind production both have a negative effect on electricity prices. The effect of solar production increases with quantiles, whereas the effect of wind production decreases with quantiles. This paper also includes a stress testing case study in which a producer faces the risk of high solar and wind production, and investigates the effect on the lower tail of the price distribution. Overall, the results demonstrate how the proposed approach can be a helpful risk management tool for participants in the electricity market.

Abstract This paper uses quantile regression to demonstrate how electricity price distributions are linked to fundamental supply and demand variables. It investigates the California electricity market (zone SP15) for selected trading hours using data from January 8, 2013 to September 24, 2016. The approach quantifies a non-linear relationship between the fundamentals and electricity prices, just as predicted by the merit order curve. Natural gas, greenhouse gas allowance prices and load all have a positive effect on electricity prices, with the effect increasing with the quantiles. In contrast, solar production and wind production both have a negative effect on electricity prices. The effect of solar production increases with quantiles, whereas the effect of wind production decreases with quantiles. This paper also includes a stress testing case study in which a producer faces the risk of high solar and wind production, and investigates the effect on the lower tail of the price distribution. Overall, the results demonstrate how the proposed approach can be a helpful risk management tool for participants in the electricity market.

Thermodynamic and exergoeconomic analyses were performed on the system. A performance indicator, namely the average levelized costs per unit of exergy products for the overall system, was developed to assess the exergoeconomic performance of the system. The effects of four key parameters including flash pressure, pinch point temperature difference in the vapor generator, inlet pressure and back pressure of the ORC turbine on the system performance were evaluated through a parametric analysis. Two single-objective optimizations were conducted to reach the maximum exergy efficiency and the minimum average levelized costs per unit of exergy products for the overall system, respectively. The optimization results implied that the most exergoeconomically effective system couldn't obtain the best system thermodynamic performance and vice versa. An exergy analysis based on the thermodynamic optimization result revealed that the biggest exergy destruction occurred in the vapor generator and the next two largest exergy destruction were respectively caused by the steam turbine and the flashing device.

For further information contact us at helpdesk@openaire.eudescription Publicationkeyboard_double_arrow_right Article , Journal 1986Publisher:Elsevier BV Authors: Robert H. Gray;Abstract Chemists, biologists, ecologists, and engineers have been developing a data-base to identify and evaluate risks to humans and the environment and strategies to minimize potential risks from large-scale coal liquefaction. Coal-liquids produced by various processes and under various stages of design and operating conditions have been screened for potential health and environmental effects. Toxicologically active materials have been fractionated and chemical constituents of biologically active fractions have been identified, and the environmental fate of problematic agents is being determined. Results indicate that coal-derived liquids are generally more toxicologically active than shale oil and petroleum crudes. Bioactive agents include primary aromatic amines (PAA), polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), phenolics, and others. Some components of coal-derived materials are taken up by biota and metabolized. Hydrotreating reduces PAA, PAH, and phenol content, as well as toxicological response to coal-liquids. Selective distillation restricts PAA and PAH content, and mutagenicity and carcinogenicity to high-boiling-range materials. Other process conditions and environmental factors also influence chemical characteristics and toxicological activity of coal-derived liquids. Recent findings indicate that biological responses to a given coal-derived liquid component vary, depending on whether that material is presented to the organism or environment as a pure compound or in a complex mixture. The data-base described provides input for assessment and has been used by developers when selecting process modifications and product slates that minimize risk to humans and the environment. These data have also been used in developing occupational health and industrial hygiene practices and may aid in selection of control technologies, mitigative strategies, special handling and accident prevention procedures, or spill-clean-up options to enhance the environmental acceptability of a coal liquefaction industry.

We have employed the Bayer and Hanck, (2013) combined cointegration test to examine the long-run relationships between those variables as well as the autoregressive distributed lag method with structural breaks as a robustness check. The empirical findings demonstrate a long-run relationship between those variables. Hydroelectricity consumption, fossil fuel consumption, capital, financial development and globalization and its components have a positive influence on GDP in China. The findings also provide predominant evidence on the long-run feedback hypothesis between the variables. The findings suggest that policies should be implemented to increase the role hydropower in the energy mix for sustainable economic growth in the country.

description Publicationkeyboard_double_arrow_right Article , Journal 2009Publisher:Elsevier BV Authors: C.E. Baukal; W.R. Bussman;Abstract Process heaters are typically located outside and subject to the weather. Although heaters are typically tuned at a given set of conditions, actual operating conditions vary significantly from season to season and sometimes even within a given day. Unfortunately, most heaters are not properly adjusted for actual operating conditions. Ambient air temperature, pressure and humidity all significantly impact process heater efficiency. This paper shows how changing ambient conditions can reduce efficiency if proper adjustments are not made. Combustion efficiency is related to air:fuel ratio and to air–fuel mixing. A general industry rule-of-thumb is that operating at 2–3% excess O 2 (dry basis) results in the best combination of efficiency and flexibility. At higher O 2 levels, efficiency is reduced because the additional O 2 and N 2 absorb heat, much of which exits the exhaust stack. At lower O 2 levels, efficiency can be substantially reduced because some fuel is uncombusted. Low O 2 levels can also lead to soot and coke buildup on process tubes reducing heat transfer to the process fluid and reducing efficiency. Several examples demonstrate how ambient conditions affect heater efficiency. Calculations and graphs for a wide range of operating conditions demonstrate how efficiency can be affected by changes in ambient conditions for process heaters.

Calculations and graphs for a wide range of operating conditions demonstrate how efficiency can be affected by changes in ambient conditions for process heaters.

Mumma;Abstract A criterion, based on optimization principles, for determining the SAT setpoint in VAV systems is presented. It is generally accepted that conventional SAT reset controls (SATRC), bounded by either space humidity or ductwork size, will save cooling and/or heating energy. How-ever, the ventilation consequences and penalty resulting from increased fan power have generally been overlooked. Ventilation is impacted since changes in the SAT setpoint change the primary airflow rate and the operation of economizer cycles, i.e. the distribution of fresh outdoor air (OA). These changes may result in extra energy demand and ventilation inefficiency if the reset criterion is not appropriate. This optimization concept simultaneously reduces energy consumption and meets ventilation requirements. Simulation results illustrate that the use of the optimized SATRC saves more energy than a conventional one.

Yelishala; Hameed Metghalchi; Yiannis A. Levendis;Abstract Propane (C3H8) is being considered as an alternative refrigerant, besides being used as an alternative fuel, because of its low Global Warming Potential and zero Ozone Depletion Potential. Using blends of C3H8 with CO2 as refrigerants, diminishes the fire safety concerns in case of accidental leak of this flammable substance in refrigeration applications. This paper reports on the effects of CO2 on laminar burning speed and flame instability of C3H8/air blends at elevated temperatures and pressures. The flame structures were investigated in a Schlieren system. The laminar burning speeds of C3H8/CO2/air mixtures were measured in a spherical chamber and were fitted by a power-law mathematical correlation. The one-dimensional flame code from Cantera with kinetic model was also used to predict laminar burning speed. The high-speed photography showed that CO2 inhibits the flame instability because of its hydrodynamic and diffusional-thermal effects. Results showed that the laminar burning speed decreased with increasing CO2 mole fraction in the mixtures and that CO2 promotes the flame stability. The high temperature C3H8 oxidation was governed by the reaction of H + O 2 = O + OH . The effects of CO2 on laminar burning speed were mainly determined by the reaction of CO 2 + H = CO + OH and the high energy capacity (specific heat) of CO2.

To discuss the problem from economics and business perspectives, this study proposes a new use of DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) as a methodology for unified (operational and environmental) assessment. A unique feature of the proposed approach is that it separates outputs into desirable and undesirable categories. Such separation is important because energy industries usually produce both desirable and undesirable outputs. This study discusses how to unify the two types of outputs under natural and managerial disposability. The proposed DEA approach evaluates various organizations by the three efficiency measures such as OE (Operational Efficiency), UEN (Unified Efficiency under Natural disposability) and UENM (Unified Efficiency under Natural and Managerial disposability). An important feature of UENM is that it separates inputs into two categories and unifies them under the two disposability concepts in addition to the proposed output separation and unification. This study incorporates an amount of capital assets for technology innovation, as one of the two input group, into the measurement of UENM. Then, it compares UENM with the other two efficiency measures. This study is the first research effort in which DEA has an analytical capability to quantify the importance of investment on capital assets for technology innovation. To confirm the practicality of the proposed approach, this study applies the three efficiency measures to a data set regarding manufacturing and non-manufacturing industries of 47 prefectures in Japan. This study empirically confirms the validity of Porter hypothesis in Japanese manufacturing industries, so implying that environmental regulation has been effective for betterment on the performance of Japanese manufacturing industries. Another important finding is that the emission of greenhouse gases is a main source of unified inefficiency in the two groups of industries. Therefore, Japanese industries, examined in this study, need to make their efforts to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution substances by investing in capital assets for technology innovation.

Heffington; G.E. Parks;Abstract We present estimates for the effective oxidation rates of methane over a wide range of equivalence ratios using Ar as primary diluent and CO or H 2 O as additives. The rate of disappearance of methane has been monitored in a fuel-rich CH 4 O 2 Ar mixture by direct measurements of the change in transmission for He-Ne laser radiation at 3.392 μ behind reflected shock waves. The rate of formation of water with time has been obtained in independent absolute i.r. emission measurements near 6.75 μ on stoichiometric CH 4 O 2 Ar mixtures with and without added water. We have found empirically that a number of data correlations may be used and that the overall rates of disappearance of CH 4 and of formation of H 2 O were the same during the post-induction period behind reflected shock waves. The rates of concentration changes with time to which we refer are average rates observed during the post-induction periods. The temperatures ( T max ) for which the oxygen-atom concentrations are a relative maximum were found to be close to the arithmetic means between the initial temperatures ( T 5 ) behind reflected shock fronts and the final equilibrium temperatures. The numerical values found for the correlation parameters as functions of the temperature during the post-induction oxidation are not sensitive to the prior admixture of CO or H 2 O but vary with mixture ratio. The overall methane conversion rates are directly useful in defining burner designs for the utilization of highly diluted mixtures (i.e. low-Btu gas systems) containing primarily CH 4 . Our results are not applicable to low-Btu gas mixtures containing such reactive species as H 2 or NH 3 .

Abstract This paper uses quantile regression to demonstrate how electricity price distributions are linked to fundamental supply and demand variables. It investigates the California electricity market (zone SP15) for selected trading hours using data from January 8, 2013 to September 24, 2016. The approach quantifies a non-linear relationship between the fundamentals and electricity prices, just as predicted by the merit order curve. Natural gas, greenhouse gas allowance prices and load all have a positive effect on electricity prices, with the effect increasing with the quantiles. In contrast, solar production and wind production both have a negative effect on electricity prices. The effect of solar production increases with quantiles, whereas the effect of wind production decreases with quantiles. This paper also includes a stress testing case study in which a producer faces the risk of high solar and wind production, and investigates the effect on the lower tail of the price distribution. Overall, the results demonstrate how the proposed approach can be a helpful risk management tool for participants in the electricity market.

Thermodynamic and exergoeconomic analyses were performed on the system. A performance indicator, namely the average levelized costs per unit of exergy products for the overall system, was developed to assess the exergoeconomic performance of the system. The effects of four key parameters including flash pressure, pinch point temperature difference in the vapor generator, inlet pressure and back pressure of the ORC turbine on the system performance were evaluated through a parametric analysis. Two single-objective optimizations were conducted to reach the maximum exergy efficiency and the minimum average levelized costs per unit of exergy products for the overall system, respectively. The optimization results implied that the most exergoeconomically effective system couldn't obtain the best system thermodynamic performance and vice versa. An exergy analysis based on the thermodynamic optimization result revealed that the biggest exergy destruction occurred in the vapor generator and the next two largest exergy destruction were respectively caused by the steam turbine and the flashing device.

For further information contact us at helpdesk@openaire.eudescription Publicationkeyboard_double_arrow_right Article , Journal 1986Publisher:Elsevier BV Authors: Robert H. Gray;Abstract Chemists, biologists, ecologists, and engineers have been developing a data-base to identify and evaluate risks to humans and the environment and strategies to minimize potential risks from large-scale coal liquefaction. Coal-liquids produced by various processes and under various stages of design and operating conditions have been screened for potential health and environmental effects. Toxicologically active materials have been fractionated and chemical constituents of biologically active fractions have been identified, and the environmental fate of problematic agents is being determined. Results indicate that coal-derived liquids are generally more toxicologically active than shale oil and petroleum crudes. Bioactive agents include primary aromatic amines (PAA), polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), phenolics, and others. Some components of coal-derived materials are taken up by biota and metabolized. Hydrotreating reduces PAA, PAH, and phenol content, as well as toxicological response to coal-liquids. Selective distillation restricts PAA and PAH content, and mutagenicity and carcinogenicity to high-boiling-range materials. Other process conditions and environmental factors also influence chemical characteristics and toxicological activity of coal-derived liquids. Recent findings indicate that biological responses to a given coal-derived liquid component vary, depending on whether that material is presented to the organism or environment as a pure compound or in a complex mixture. The data-base described provides input for assessment and has been used by developers when selecting process modifications and product slates that minimize risk to humans and the environment. These data have also been used in developing occupational health and industrial hygiene practices and may aid in selection of control technologies, mitigative strategies, special handling and accident prevention procedures, or spill-clean-up options to enhance the environmental acceptability of a coal liquefaction industry.

We have employed the Bayer and Hanck, (2013) combined cointegration test to examine the long-run relationships between those variables as well as the autoregressive distributed lag method with structural breaks as a robustness check. The empirical findings demonstrate a long-run relationship between those variables. Hydroelectricity consumption, fossil fuel consumption, capital, financial development and globalization and its components have a positive influence on GDP in China. The findings also provide predominant evidence on the long-run feedback hypothesis between the variables. The findings suggest that policies should be implemented to increase the role hydropower in the energy mix for sustainable economic growth in the country.
