A facility located in Oklahoma City, OK
The average plant indoor temperature is 80 deg F. The average cost of electricity, including demand, is $0.060 per kWh.
The facility uses four electric barrel extruders without insulation. IR images of a single extruder barrel are shown in the picture below. Note the positions of the cross-hairs of the IR camera temperature indicator, below. Assume that this profile is typical of all four barrels.
Extruder dimensions: length =10 ft, external diameter =1 ft, efficiency =60%, loading =75%
The four extruders are used for 16 hours per day, five days/week, 52 weeks/year.
Develop a recommendation for insulating the four extruder barrels and calculate the energy and energy cost savings possible. You do not need to calculate the project cost and the simple payback. (50 points)
