  • Energy intensity variability analysis
    Patent number: 10438150
    Abstract: A method for reducing energy costs at a facility includes identifying candidate production entities at the facility having a high potential for energy intensity variation reduction, determining potential cost savings associated with reducing energy intensity variation in the candidate production entities, identifying a root cause for energy intensity variation in the candidate production entities, and causing an action to be performed to mitigate the root cause.

  • Engine block heater
    Patent number: 5584269
    Abstract: An engine block heater comprising a propane circulation heater in which engine coolant is heated in a jacket surrounding an inner chamber which is open at both ends to accommodate an industrial size portable propane torch. The jacket is inclined to the horizontal and has a coolant inlet and a coolant outlet which, in use, are connected to the engine block. When the torch is lit, coolant from the engine flows, driven by natural convection forces so that cold coolant from the engine is replaced with heated coolant.
