Overview
Credit: 6 PDH
Length: 68 pages
Engineers are often unaware of the opportunities available for energy and productivity savings in their steam systems, or they are unsure of the calculation procedures required to determine the savings opportunities. Steam system surveys can save energy and provide significant economic benefits to the facility owner.
In this course, you’ll learn major areas where steam systems can be improved, along with calculations that you can perform to quantify steam system improvement opportunities. Guidelines are provided for profiling individual steam systems with methods to estimate the fuel costs and operating characteristics of the facility along with identifying improvements in energy efficiency that translate to operational cost savings.
