Abstract:Variable speed drives are the most promising technique to reduce electric
motors energy consumption. This paper discusses energy savings achieved by
installing variable speed drives to control rotating equipment motors such
as pumps, compressors, blowers, and fans in oil processing facilities. In
addition to energy savings, variable speed drives will improve overall
equipment efficiency, increase reliability, and reduce greenhouse gases
(GHG) emissions. An Energy audit was performed on a case… Show more
