Engineering and Economics of Refrigerated and Chilled Sea Water Systems for Semi-tropical Waters, Including an Annotated Bibliography
Author: Robert C. ErnstPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Fishery products
Languages : en
Pages : 82
Book Description
An overview of work done with RSW and CSW systems and the potential for the use of their combinations is presented. Particular attention is givento the problems arising from the use of these systems in the tropical and semi- tropical waters found off the Southeastern United States. Brief estimates of both first costs and operating costs are given for four hypothetical systems; however, no attempt is made to specify a least-cost system due to the number of controlling variables that must be considered in any specific application. An annotated bibliography of most of the relevant literature is provided in an appendix.

Process Control
Author: Béla G. LiptákPublisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
ISBN: 1483145026
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 1580
Book Description
Instrument Engineers' Handbook, Third Edition: Process Control provides information pertinent to control hardware, including transmitters, controllers, control valves, displays, and computer systems. This book presents the control theory and shows how the unit processes of distillation and chemical reaction should be controlled. Organized into eight chapters, this edition begins with an overview of the method needed for the state-of-the-art practice of process control. This text then examines the relative merits of digital and analog displays and computers. Other chapters consider the basic industrial annunciators and other alarm systems, which consist of multiple individual alarm points that are connected to a trouble contact, a logic module, and a visual indicator. This book discusses as well the data loggers available for process control applications. The final chapter deals with the various pump control systems, the features and designs of variable-speed drives, and the metering pumps. This book is a valuable resource for engineers.
Earth Shelter Technology

Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1986.
Solar Energy Technology Handbook
Author: E. W. DickinsonPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1351085182
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 822
Book Description
The handbook, for convenient use, is divided into eight main units: (1) The Solar Resource; (2) Solar Thermal Collectors; (3) Photovoltaics; (4) Bioconversion; (5) Wind Energy; (6) Solar Energy Storage Systems; (7) Applications of Solar Energy; (8) Non-technical Issues. In addition there are three Appendixes containing unit-conversion tables and useful solar data. It became obvious early in this project that if proper coverage were to be given each of these areas it would be necessary to divide the handbook into two volumes. The first six units constitute Part A, Engineering Fundamentals and the last two units constitute Part B, Applications, Systems Design, and Economics. These volumes have been prepared primarily as reference books, but it is felt that many of the sections will prove useful for practicing engineers, scientists and students.
