    • FLASTAR: Measured Savings of a Comprehensive Energy Retrofit in a Florida Elementary School 
      Sherwin, J. R.; Parker, D. S. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1998)
      This paper describes the final results for the pilot demonstration of the Florida Public Building Loan Concept. This loan program was intended to provide low cost funds to eligible public entities for upgrade of building ...
    • Impact of Reflective Roofing on Cooling Electrical Use and Peak Demand in a Florida Retail Mall 
      Parker, D. S.; Sonne, J. K.; Sherwin, J. R. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
      Architects in hot climates have long recognized that reflective roof colors can reduce building cooling load. Experimentation spanning nearly three decades has shown that white roofing surfaces can significantly reduce ...
    • Influence of Attic Radiant Barrier Systems on Air Conditioning Demand in an Utility Pilot Project 
      Parker, D. S.; Sherwin, J. R. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
      A utility monitoring project has evaluated radiant barrier systems (RBS) as a new potential demand site management (DSM) program. The study examined how the retrofit of attic radiant barriers can be expected to alter utility ...
    • Measured Energy Savings from Retrofits Installed in Low-Income Housing in a Hot and Humid Climate 
      Parker, D. S.; Sherwin, J. R.; Floyd, D. B. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1998)
      The Florida Solar Energy Center (FSEC) is metering energy use in a Habitat for Humanity housing development. The objective is to understand the way in which energy is used in low income housing and how it can be effectively ...
    • Monitored Energy Use Patterns in Low-Income Housing in a Hot and Humid Climate 
      Parker, D. S.; Mazzara, M. D.; Sherwin, J. R. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1996)
      The Florida Solar Energy Center (FSEC) is metering energy use in two Habitat for Humanity developments. The objective is to understand how energy is used in low income housing and how it can be effectively reduced. The ten ...
    • Performance Assessment of Photovoltaic Attic Ventilator Fans 
      Parker, D. S.; Sherwin, J. R. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
      Controlling summer attic heat gain is important to reducing air conditioning energy use in homes in hot-humid climates. Both heat transfer through ceilings and t attic duct systems can make up a large part of peak cooling ...
