Download or read book Energy Supply Options for Modernizing Army Heating Systems written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Army central heating plants (CHPs) are about 30 years old. Many are nearing the end of their expected lives and experience poor combustion, low thermal efficiencies, and reliability problems. The most common solution for faulty CHP equipment is to replace it with the same technology. In some cases, however, the solution is to replace the large central system with many smaller, distributed gas-fired boiler systems. Although modernization of equipment can help avoid the high cost of the air pollution control equipment required for new energy supply facilities, the economic benefits gained from the early modernization programs have changed the life extension philosophy at most utilities. Utilities now view modernization as a long-term strategy or an ongoing policy for maintenance of and investment in existing power plants, not simply as a way to avoid the high cost of air pollution equipment. This report describes a screening tool and procedures to evaluate energy supply options to modernize or decentralize CHPs. The screening tool is to be used for a first level analysis of the suitability of central or decentralized plants using basic economic, climate, and real property data. If warranted, a more detailed conceptual analysis can be conducted which would then be the basis for initiating an energy supply implementation plan at the site. These guidelines do not represent a specific modernization program but rather a process to be adapted to specific needs at the Major Army Command and installation levels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary issues affecting energy options are those of availability, affordability, sustainability, and security. Since energy resources are unevenly distributed around the world, and the impacts of energy consumption have global reach in both environmental and political terms, any meaningful review of energy-related issues must take a global perspective. This work synopsizes world and national energy issues (including energy source options, resource stocks, and future prognosis) in the context of how Army installations need to respond to changing trends. This report presents implications of actions that may be taken in response to the national and world energy situation, to help the Army to make informed choices on energy utilization that will contribute to sustaining the Army's mission.

This book was released on 1997-12-30 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents electric power requirements for the dismounted soldier on future Army battlefields, describes advanced energy concepts, and provides an integrated assessment of technologies likely to affect limitations and needs in the future. It surveys technologies associated with both supply and demand including: energy sources and systems; low power electronics and design; communications, computers, displays, and sensors; and networks, protocols, and operations. Advanced concepts discussed are predicated on continued development by the Army of soldier systems similar to the Land Warrior system on which the committee bases its projections on energy use. Finally, the volume proposes twenty research objectives to achieve energy goals in the 2025 time frame.
