Heat Transfer
Optimizing O2 levels in fired heaters
Here's the procedure this plant used to reduce fuel consumption and emissions
Selective withdrawal flows from storage tanks
Using this technique can improve costs and product quality
Update design and maintenance methods for refractory systems
Better design methods and repair efforts reduce failure of these systems
Solving hydraulic problems in crude preheat train networks
Heat transfer and hydraulic problems need to be considered simultaneously
High temperature air combustion for steam reformers
This novel technology can reduce facility NOx emissions
Repair critical-service exchangers with innovative methods
In this case history, unconventional maintenance techniques stopped chronic leaking for an olefin's heat-exchanger circuit
Consider spiral heat exchangers for fouling applications
The inherent 'self-cleaning' action reduces downtime
Cost savings of 'zero-fouling' crude oil preheaters
Unique configurations of proven self-cleaning fluidized bed heat exchangers virtually eliminate fouling in this application
The fouling limit in crude oil preheat train retrofits
Here are the design considerations for both single exchangers and exchanger networks
Simplify your thermal efficiency calculation
