Sommario/riassunto

This new text represents the most detailed and comprehensive book presenting modern practice and theory relevant to the thermal-flow performance evaluation, design, and optimization of air-cooled heat exchangers and cooling towers. Kroger provides modern analytical and empirical tools used to evaluate the thermal-flow performance and design of air-cooled heat exchangers and cooling towers. He also covers how to prepare improved specifications and evaluate more critical bids with respect to thermal performance of new cooling systems. Further, Kroger explores improvement possibilities with respect to retrofits of existing cooling units as well as possible impacts of plant operations and environmental influences. This book lets you: optimize plant efficiency through an understanding of key reasons for poor performance; get extensive up-to-date information on air-cooled



heat exchangers and cooling towers; and, reduce misunderstanding between supplier and client through increased insight and intelligent specifications understanding.

Sommario/riassunto

This volume on the latest developments in the theory and applications of time series analysis and forecasting comprises a selection of refereed papers presented at the 9th International Conference on Time Series and Forecasting, ITISE 2023, held in Gran Canaria, Spain, July 12-14, 2023. It is divided into several parts that address modern theoretical aspects of time series analysis, advanced econometric methods, time series and machine learning, financial forecasting and risk analysis, and applications to various disciplines, including econometrics and energy research. The broad range of topics and applications presented, including matters of particular relevance for sustainable development, gives readers a modern perspective on the subject. The ITISE conference series provides a forum for scientists, engineers, educators and students to discuss the latest advances and implementations in the foundations, theory, models and applications of time series analysis and forecasting. It focuses on interdisciplinary research encompassing computer science, mathematics, statistics and econometrics.
