• The papers in this collection have originated from Britain, Eastern and Western Europe and India, with the delegates coming from fifteen countries, including a strong contingent from Japan. This indicates a widespread interest in the application of heat pumps. The heat pump suffers from an environmental dichotomy. On the one hand it saves fossil fuel energy, thereby reducing CO emissions. On the other hand, in the vapour compression form, 2 it generally employs CFCs which are destructive to our protective ozone layer as well as contributing to the greenhouse effect. Taking the first, heat pumps, perhaps have the widest application numerically in the heating (and cooling) of buildings and an excellent paper describes case studies concerning three large Norwegian hotels. In these, heat was pumped from the adjacent river or sea when heating was required, and during the summer, when cooling became necessary, to generate domestic hot water. The heat pumps were installed by SINTEF Refrigeration Engineering, Norway, and have demonstrated payback periods of about two years. The fractional total energy saving of the three hotels was 30% as a result, an impressive figure, indeed. A similar paper by a Belgian architectural consortium shows how this technique can be successfully applied to the cooling of a large television complex where considerable quantities of heat were being generated by the luminaries. In this exercise the cooling load was successfully pumped to provide hot water.

• A unique approach to the study of geothermal energy systems This book takes a unique, holistic approach to the interdisciplinary study of geothermal energy systems, combining low, medium, and high temperature applications into a logical order. The emphasis is on the concept that all geothermal projects contain common elements of a "thermal energy reservoir" that must be properly designed and managed. The book is organized into four sections that examine geothermal systems: energy utilization from resource and site characterization; energy harnessing; energy conversion (heat pumps, direct uses, and heat engines); and energy distribution and uses. Examples are provided to highlight fundamental concepts, in addition to more complex system design and simulation. Key features: Companion website containing software tools for application of fundamental principles and solutions to real-world problems. Balance of theory, fundamental principles, and practical application. Interdisciplinary treatment of the subject matter. Geothermal Heat Pump & Heat Engine Systems: Theory and Practice is a unique textbook for Energy Engineering and Mechanical Engineering students as well as practicing engineers who are involved with low-enthalpy geothermal energy systems.

• This publication grew from the author?s concern for a lack of suitable published text on pump basics in the sub-professional disciplines. Whilst an abundance of pump literature is produced for professional engineers, there is a general lack of technical information aimed specifically at the person who is called upon to sell, install and service pumping equipment.

• Ideal for removing large amounts of liquids from wells, Electrical Submersible Pumps (ESP) are perhaps the most versatile and profitable pieces of equipment in a petroleum company's arsenal. However, if not properly maintained and operated, they could quickly become an expensive nightmare. The first book devoted to the design, operation, maintenance, and care, Electrical Submersible Pumps Manual delivers the tools and applicable knowledge needed to optimize ESP performance while maximizing of run life and the optimization of production.
• The prefect companion for new engineers who need to develop and apply their skills more efficiently or experienced engineers who wish further develop their knowledge of best practice techniques, this manual covers basic electrical engineering, hydraulics and systems analysis before addressing pump components such as centrifugal pumps, motors, seals, separators, and cables. In addition, the author includes comprehensive sections on analysis and optimization, monitoring and trouble-shooting, and installation design and installation under special conditions.

You can maintain your ac by yourself by following these steps, and they don't require you to hire a technician. These simple technical skills will help you save time and money over the long-term.

• The Environmental Design Pocketbook 2nd ed places the information you need for sustainable, low energy building design at your fingertips.
• Packed with diagrams, tools and tips, it cuts through the complex mass of technical data and legislation that faces the designer, and distils all the key guidance into a single reference that is quick, easy to use and points to the facts, figures and performance data that are most important.
• This 2nd edition is now fully up-to-date with the latest Building Regulations Part L and F legislation (England and Wales), RIBA Plan of Work 2013, new information on the Green Deal and Zero Carbon and contains revised references and further reading sections throughout.
• Whether used in the classroom, office or on-site, the book guides the designer through the entire process; from the fundamentals to the building details. From future-proofing for a changing climate to rainwater harvesting, retrofit, and zero-carbon technologies - the Pocketbook has got it covered.

• I have worked as a technical support engineer in renewable heating for a decade and a half. I specialised in Air source heat pumps in the domestic sector. I joined this industry before it was cool to be in renewable heating and before the government here in the UK jumped on the bandwagon. I have experimented with this technology in my own house, and I am ashamed to say in the early days in our customers houses too. My team and I learnt a lot on the way, we have been cold and wet, we have been shouted at and held high on the shoulders of our peers at times. It?s been a real roller coaster.
• Over that time, I have been asked literally thousands of questions. I?m inherently lazy so to save me answering them again I chose the most popular questions and tried my best to answer them here. This book is designed to help with the most common questions asked by homeowners and heat pump novices. If it goes down well I might just do one for engineers and heating professionals.
• Heat pumps are not really very complicated once you strip away the jargon, so in this book I?m going to try to make the subjects easy to understand using analogies and stories which are easier to relate to. I?ve tried to keep the answers as simple as I can without wading into thermodynamics and mindless maths.
• Hopefully this will be useful to homeowners, installers, energy surveyors and heat pump deniers alike.

• It is important to realise that different groups of individuals have different levels of knowledge and competencies. By using different methodologies, teachers can match a student?s learning style to meet their needs and expectations. The use of various teaching methodologies should enable presenters such as teachers, lecturers, trainers and instructors to develop superior learning styles for their audiences.

• The large number of pump types produced by the various pump manufacturers often makes it quite a problem for the average user of pumping equipment to select a unit best suited to a particular application. Centrifugal pumps for instance, are designed to meet the requirements of a wide variety of services and are recommended for use in general industry. Various systems installed, maintained, and repaired today include pumping equipment.

• Providing a wealth of information on pumps and pump systems, Pump Characteristics and Applications, Third Edition details how pump equipment is selected, sized, operated, maintained, and repaired. The book identifies the key components of pumps and pump accessories, introduces the basics of pump and system hydraulics as well as more advanced hydraulic topics, and details various pump types, as well as special materials on seals, motors, variable frequency drives, and other pump-related subjects. It uses example problems throughout the text, reinforcing the practical application of the formulae and analytical presentations. It also includes new images highlighting the latest generation of pumps and other components, explores troubleshooting options, and incorporates relevant additions into the existing chapters.
