Optimizing HVAC Control to Improve Building Comfort and Energy Performance
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2003)
This paper demonstrates the benefits of optimal
control in well-designed and operated buildings using
a case study. The case study building was built in
2001. The HVAC and control systems have been
installed with ...
Development of By-Pass Blending Station System
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2003)
A new building blending station system named
by-pass blending station (BBS) has been developed
to reduce building pump energy consumption in both
district heating and cooling systems. Theoretical
investigation demonstrated ...
Study of a Fault Analysis System for a Heat Supply Network Based on GIS
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)
Conventional methods cannot satisfy the request of the layout and operation management in a heating system. The geographical information system (GIS) in a heat supply network can realize information conformity and information ...
Optimal Terminal Box Control for Single Duct Air-Handling Units
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)
Terminal boxes maintain room temperature by modulating supply air temperature and airflow in building HVAC systems. Terminal boxes with conventional control sequences often supply inadequate airflow to a conditioned space, ...
Continuous Commissioning of a Central Chilled Water & Hot Water System
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
A central chilled water / hot water system
provides cooling / heating energy from central utility
plants to multiple customers (buildings) through
campus distribution loops. To effectively transport
the chilled water and ...
Development of a Procedure for the Predictive Control Strategy of a Chilled Water Storage System
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
Thermal energy storage systems store the
thermal energy produced by the chiller plant in
periods of off-peak electrical demand or when
cheaper electricity is available. The stored thermal
energy is then withdrawn from the ...
Optimization Measures for Sporting and Special Event Facilities: Design and Operation
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
Reducing unnecessary building energy costs
is becoming more of a priority. Rising fuel
prices and a global emphasis on energy
efficiency are key contributing factors. This
push towards energy efficiency certainly applies
to ...
Optimization Control Strategies for HVAC Terminal Boxes
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
The HVAC terminal boxes are one of the
major building HVAC components. They
directly impact the building room comfort
conditions and the energy costs. How to operate
the box in a highly energy efficient way and
maintain ...
A Simple and Quick Chilled Water Loop Balancing for Variable Flow System
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
For many modem buildings, the chilled water
loops and risers are equipped with variable speed
pumping systems. How to quickly balance the
loop or riser to satisfy the cooling requirement
and reduce energy consumption is a ...
Development of a Water Loop Simulation at the Texas A&M University Main Campus
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
A computer simulation model is an economic and convenient tool to perform analysis of chilled water loop. The primary objective of this paper is developing procedure for simulating and optimizing chilled water loop with ...
