    • Joo, I. S.; Liu, M.; Wang, J.; Hansen, K. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2003)
      This paper demonstrates the implementation of new innovative technologies during continuous commissioning practices to improve building operations and reduce energy costs. A 30-year-old typical commercial building with a ...
    • Joo, I. S.; Turner, W. D.; Song, L.; Dong, D.; Baltazar-Cervantes, J. C.; Napper, G.; Wei, G. (Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu); Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2007)
      Continuous Commissioning (CC) is a proven, highly cost-effective process that can improve building comfort and reduce energy consumption. This paper discusses the CC of three public schools in Austin, Texas. These schools ...
    • Joo, I. S.; Song, L.; Liu, M.; Carico, M. (Energy Systems Laboratory, 2008-12)
      Continuous Commissioning®1 (CC®) strategies include reducing simultaneous heating and cooling, scheduling the facility’s occupancy needs, utilizing free cooling, and minimizing excessive supply air and outside air. Most ...
    • Liu, G.; Joo, I. S.; Song, L.; Liu, M. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2003)
      Fan airflow is the key parameter for air volume tracking control in variable air volume systems. One of the airflow measurement methods is to determine airflow using the fan speed, fan head, and fan curve. Both fan speed ...
    • Joo, I. S.; Song, L.; Liu, M.; Douglas, B. (Energy Systems Laboratory, 2008-12)
      A multi-zone air-handling unit was popular several decades ago due to the convenience of small sized modular units, which were inexpensive to install and easily maintained in a mechanical room. The cost and convenience ...
    • Joo, I. S.; Liu, M. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2001)
      Dual-fan, dual-duct air-handling units introduce outside air directly into the cooling duct and use two variable speed devices to independently maintain the static pressure of the hot and the cold air ducts. Analytical ...
    • Song, L.; Joo, I. S.; Guwana, S. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2009-11)
      Thermal storage systems were originally designed to shift the on-peak cooling production to off-peak cooling production to reduce the on-peak demand. Based on the current electricity charging structure, the reduction of ...
