Continuous Commissioning of a Medical Research Facility
(Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu)Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2007)
This paper presents a case study for Continuous Commissioning® (CC®)of a 520,000 square foot medical research facility. All of the primary energy using systems in the building were investigated to determine their existing ...
The Business and Technical Case for Continuous Commissioning for Enhanced Building Operations - A Case Study: Alamo Community College District, San Antonio, Texas, USA
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2004)
This paper provides a business and technical case study for the Continuous Commissioning®(CC®) 1 process
developed by the Energy Systems Laboratory (ESL) at Texas A&M University System for building optimization.
The business ...
How Much Can a Campus Save on Utility Bills by Turning a 5-Workday Week Into a 4Workday Week
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2003)
The recent budget cuts campaign mandated
by the governor's office had all state agencies in
Texas looking for ways to reduce revenue
spending. One of the cost savings opportunities
perceived by many university officials ...
Improving Control of a Dual-Duct Single-Fan Variable Air Volume Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2003)
This paper discusses improved control strategies
for dual-duct single-fan variable air volume (VAV)
systems. Common control strategy for supply air
volume modulation is evaluated, and an improved air
volume control strategy ...
Chiller Start/Stop Optimization for a Campus-wide Chilled Water System with a Thermal Storage Tank Under a Four-Period Electricity Rate Schedule
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
The existence of a 1.4-million-gallon
chilled water thermal storage tank greatly
increases the operational flexibility of a campuswide
chilled water system under a four-part
electricity rate structure. While significant
...
A Method for Simulating Heat Recovery Systems Using AirModel in Implementations of the ASHRAE Simplified Energy Analysis Procedure
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2005)
Advantages of Financing Continuous Commissioning® as an Energy Conservation Retrofit Measure
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2005)
Exploring Maximum Humidity Control and Energy Conservation Opportunities with Single Duct Single Zone Air-Handling Units
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)
Humidity control for single-duct single-zone (SDSZ) constant volume air handling units is known to be a challenge. The operation of these systems is governed by space temperature only. Under mild weather conditions, discharge ...
Airside Economizer- Comparing Different Control Strategies and Common Misconceptions
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-10)
Air-side economizer is broadly adopted in building HVAC design and operations. When the system is properly designed and the control sequence is properly implemented, air-side economizer provides significant energy savings. ...
Optimize the Supply Air Temperature Reset Schedule for a Single-Duct VAV System
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
The supply air temperature for a single-duct
variable air volume (VAV) system is usually set as a
constant. To minimize the simultaneous cooling and
heating, this supply temperature is often reset based
on either return ...
