A Distributed Facilities Automation System For IBM Buildings
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
Automatic building control systems
have rapidly evolved from time-based
on-off energy management controllers
to distributed microprocessor-based
direct digital control (DDC)
Building Automation Systems.
Precipitous ...
Process Energy Retrofits
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
There are three barriers which keep the retrofit plant from
matching the energy efficiency of the new plant:
• Activation Energy. The retrofit engineer must justify
starting over rather than marginal economics.
• ...
A Manager's Approach to Energy Cost Management
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
A major responsibility of management is the control and containment of operating costs. Energy costs are a major portion of the industrial budget. GM has developed a 3 phase approach to energy conservation. Phase I ...
Cogeneration Opportunities in Texas State Agencies
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
In 1983, Texas Governor Mark White initiated an
energy cost containment program for the largest
state agencies. The Energy Management Group of the
Mechanical Engineering Department at Texas A&M University
was called ...
Save with Hybrid Refrigeration
(Energy System Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
Two level demand makes it possible to use two
systems for refrigeration and save energy and
money. An example of this type of refrigeration,
consisting of an ammonia absorption refrigeration
(AAR) unit and a mechanical ...
Distillation: The Efficient Workhorse
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)

An Analysis of Efficiency Improvements in Residential Sized Heat Pumps, Final Report, May 1986
(Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, University of California, 1985)
The objectives of this study included: (1) development of
classes of heat pumps, (2) evaluation and selection of a suitable
heat pump design model, (3) characterization of suitable baseline
heat pump designs, (4) selection ...
The Thermal Conductivity of Low Density Concretes Containing Perlite
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
The thermal conductivity, k, of low density
concretes made from Portland cement and perlite has
been measured near room temperature using an
unguarded linear heat flow apparatus. Perlite
based concretes having densities ...
