    • Earth-Coupled Water-Source Heat Pump Research, Design and Applications in Louisiana 
      Braud, H. J.; Klimkowski, H.; Baker, F. E. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1985)
      An earth-coupled water-source heat pump uses the earth as the thermal source and sink for economical, energy efficient, space heating and cooling. Water exiting the heat pump passes through an earth heat exchanger, which ...
    • Field Validation of the ASHRAI Transfer Function Method for Calculating Cooling Load 
      Braud, H. J.; Quille, T.; Shih, J. C. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1988)
      The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Transfer Function Method (TFM) was validated using two identical wood frame residential-type structures, each containing an east and ...
    • Ground Loops for Heat Pumps and Refrigeration 
      Braud, H. J. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1986)
      Ground loops are used for water source heat pumps. Refrigeration can be put on a ground loop. Water-cooled condensing units are more efficient than air-cooled, and they can be put indoors. Indoor location makes piping for ...
    • Ground-Coupled Heat Pump Applications and Case Studies 
      Braud, H. J. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1989)
      The paper presents an overview of ground loops for space-conditioning heat pumps, hot water, ice machines, and water-cooled refrigeration in residential and commercial applications. In Louisiana, a chain of hamburger ...
