LoanSTAR Monitoring and Analysis Program: Presentation Summary of the State Capitol Complex Building Operation and Maintenance Field Test
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1993)
During the Fall of 1992 a comprehensive survey was conducted on
eight buildings at the State Capitol Complex to determine potential
operations and maintenance (O&M) savings opportunities. A verbal
report of the findings ...
A Novel Procedure to Determine Optimal Air Static Pressure Set-points and Reset Schedules in VAV Air Handling Units
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1998)
Air static pressure set-point or schedule for VAV
AHLJ systems is one of the most crucial
operational parameters for satisfy lug the building
load, maintaining the room comfort level and
saving energy costs. This paper ...
Integrated Commissioning for a Large Medical Facility
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
The energy costs of heating, ventilating and
air conditioning usually represents a large
portion of the utility bills for a medical facility.
One large, modem medical center located in the
hot and humid region of southern ...
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energy is then withdrawn from the ...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 ...
Improving Building Energy System Performance by Continuous Commissioning
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1996)
The term Continuous Commissioning (CC) was first used by engineers at the Energy Systems Lab (ESL) at Texas A&M University to describe an ongoing process which improves the operation of buildings using measured hourly ...
