Often operations personnel and energy managers are 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 economical benefits to the building owner.

 

This course describes how to assist operations personnel and energy managers in identifying significant opportunities to improve steam systems.  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.

 

This course is applicable to mechanical engineers who design, operate or evaluate steam systems who wish to understand more about energy and productivity savings in the steam systems.

 

In this course, you will need to review the material contained in the Steam System Survey Guide, ORNL/TM-2001/263, May 2002, US-DOE Best Practices Steam Program, provided below. Once you complete your course review, you need to take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of thirty (30) questions at the end of this course to obtain 6 PDH credits.  The quiz will be based on this DOE publication.
