Accounting for stream variability in retrofit problems using Monte Carlo simulation
(2018)The aim of this paper is to use Monte Carlo simulation to analyse the effect of stream data variation on the economic performance of retrofit designs. The input stream data is fitted to a distribution which can be sampled ... -
An investigation of milk powder deposition on parallel fins
(2012-09-23)One method to reduce the energy consumption of industrial milk spray dryers is to recover waste heat from the exhaust dryer air. A significant challenge associated with this opportunity is the air contains a small amount ... -
Analysis of skim milk powder deposition on stainless steel tubes in cross-flow
(Elsevier, 2015)Particulate fouling on the gas side of heat recovery equipment is a common industrial problem. The aim of this study is to characterize the deposition of skim milk powder on a single bare tube in cross-flow. A custom built ... -
Application of P-graph techniques for efficient use of wood processing residues in biorefineries
(AIDIC, 2016)It is anticipated that demand for chemicals and fuel derived from sustainably grown bio-mass will increase over the coming decades. Forest and wood processing residues and waste are likely to become a significant feedstock ... -
Appropriate placement of vapour recompression in ultra-low energy industrial milk evaporation systems using Pinch Analysis
(Elsevier, 2016)This study focuses on applying Pinch Analysis to an industrial milk evaporator case study to quantify the potential energy savings. Modern milk evaporators are typically integrated using both mechanical and thermal vapour ...

An investigation of self-learning and self-protection for Adaptive Digital Twins
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Adaptive Digital Twins are applicable to a number of fields, including the cybersecurity of industial control systems. This thesis prototypes a Self-Learning adaptive digital twin and posits an architecture for the creation ... -
Automated retrofit of heat exchanger networks
(The University of Waikato, 2020)In a large industrial processing plant, a significant amount of process heat is generated using fossil fuels, contributing to New Zealand’s overall greenhouse gas emissions. While New Zealand’s renewable energy sources ... -
Unified Total Site Heat Integration: Targeting, Optimisation and Network Design
(The University of Waikato, 2018)Process industries in New Zealand use 214.3 PJ of process heat, of which approximately 65 % is fossil fuels. Despite increasing energy demands, depleting fossil fuel resources, and pressure to reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions, ... -
Energy Investment and Emissions Planning for Electricity Generation in Myanmar
(University of Waikato, 2016)Hydropower plays a critical role in supplying electricity generation in the developing nation of Myanmar. Over the next 15 years (2015 – 2030) with anticipated rapid social and economic development in Myanmar, the demand ... -
Vacuum Steam Desuperheating and Condensation: An Experimental Investigation
(University of Waikato, 2015)Steam condensation plays an essential role in supplying and removing heat in many industrial applications, including the energy sector. It therefore is a phenomena of significance that requires deep understanding. This ...
