Use a pinch study to gain better understanding of your heating and cooling sources.

Get your proper bearings
ChemicalProcessing.com
Don’t head off in the wrong direction when replacing motors. The type of service and the orientation of the motor determine which bearings it should have. Using the wrong bearings can lead to significant problems.

The rise and fall of modulation
PlantServices.com
Why have reciprocating designs fallen out of favor relative to the rotary compressor that is so predominant today? Read about the evolution of efficient controls for compressed air systems.

CAGI to verify compressor claims
PlantServices.com
The compressed air industry is taking a step that will clear the air about the performance of its equipment. For the first time, many compressed air equipment manufacturers will submit their 50 hp to 200 hp lubricated rotary-screw compressors and 200 cfm to 1,000 cfm refrigerated air dryers to an independent laboratory for performance testing.

White Papers: In depth research


Title Author Date
Selecting pressure transmitters to improve centrifugal compressor efficiency Rosemount 03/14/2005
This eight-page PDF whitepaper discusses the importance of transmitter selection for centrifugal compressors. Appropriate selection is especially important in anti-surge and throughput control applications. 
Improve Dry Gas Seal Reliability in Centrifugal Compressors 11/08/2004
This 15-page paper discusses factors related to design, barrier seals, and operations and maintenance and how to optimize gas seal reliability. 
Design the Heat-Transfer-System Expansion Tank Right Solutia 10/11/2004
The design of the expansion tank plays an important role in the successful operation of a heat transfer system using organic fluids. It can contribute to longer fluid life and lower maintenance. This paper describes the proper sizing, piping and valving, instrumenting, and inerting of the tank. 
Selecting Pressure Transmitters for Centrifugal Compressors 08/27/2004
This paper describes how to select a transmitter based on best practices instead of the "surge-plus-10%" rule. It presents methodologies and tools to minimize unnecessary energy cost without increasing safety risk.
