Thermal Storage for Energy Efficient Structures (Poteet High School Case Study)
Abstract
Poteet High School, in Mesquite, Texas, is a
facility that demonstrates state-of-the-art
environmental control through the application of
energy conserving technologies relative to
architecture, HVAC and lighting. It is also
recognized as an "Intelligent Building" by virtue
of the fact that it automatically adjusts to, and
supports the needs of, its occupants without help
from facility operating personnel. This paper
provides information relative to the system
components groupings of envelope, electrical
system and equipment and mechanical systems and
equipment. Each of the systems operating cycles
are described and the major benefits of this
design concept are summarized.
