Summary

THE CALCULATION OF COMPOSITE CURVES FOR A COMPLEX PROCESS GIVES VALUABLE INFORMATION RELATED TO ENERGY REQUIREMENTS AND TEMPERATURE BOTTLENECKS. THESE ARE FURTHER USEFUL FOR THE ANALYSIS OF PROCESS MODIFICATIONS SUCH AS THE INCLUSION OF ONE OR MORE HEAT PUMPS. EXPERIENCE SHOWS THAT THE PROCESS TEMPERATURE MAY MOVE WITH THE INTRODUCTION OF HEAT PUMPS INTO A PROCESS. THE < EFFECT FACTOR > IS UTILIZED AS A MEASURE FOR THE HEAT PUMP. THE < PROCESS EFFECT FACTOR > APPEARS TO BE EQUAL OR LESS THAN THE HEAT PUMP EFFECT FACTOR. IN CASES WHEN THE HEAT PUMP IS WRONGLY USED IN A PROCESS, THE PROCESS EFFECT FACTOR COULD BE DOWN TO 1 OR 0 ALTHOUGH THE HEAT PUMP EFFECT FACTOR IS HIGH.
