Use of EMCS Recorded Data to Identify Potential Savings Due to Improved HVAC Operations & Maintenance (O&M)
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1996)
In most chiller and boiler central plants, the
energy management and control systems (EMCS)
monitor and record key operation parameters and
energy production continuously. A method was
developed to identify potential O&M ...
Environmental Impact of the Texas LoanSTAR Program
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1998)
This paper presents an analysis of the
environmental impact of the energy reductions that
have been measured in the Texas LoanSTAR
program. There are a number of factors that
influence emission factors. The three major ...
Lessons Learned From the Continuous Commissioning of a Multi-Functional Commercial Building
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
A multi-functional institutional building often
has ventilation and comfort requirements that vary
widely from zone to zone. When we commissioned
the Reed McDonald building on the main campus of
Texas A&M University (TAMU), ...
Analysis of Texas LoanSTAR Data
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1990)
The analysis effort during the first year of the Texas LoanSTAR
Monitoring and Analysis Program has emphasized selection and
development of baseline analysis techniques to cover the range
of buildings expected in the ...
Considerations for Energy Efficient Showers in Hot-Humid Climates
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1989)
Measurements have been conducted on
four low-flow showerheads currently
recommended by utilities. These
measurements were made to determine
expected cost savings in two prison
installations, based on water
savings, sewer ...
Energy Efficiency Design Evaluation for the Texas Department of Corrections
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1988)
A rapid, but comprehensive review of the
electrical, mechanical and thermal systems in the
maximum security prisons to be built in Amarillo and
Gatesville, TX recommended 10 measures for each
prison which offered annual ...
Procedures for Filling Short Gaps in Energy Use and Weather Data
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
Filling short gaps (a few hours) in hourly
energy use and weather data can be useful for (i)
retrofit savings analysis and calculation, and for (ii)
diagnostic purposes. The paper evaluates four
methods for rehabilitating ...
The Brazos Valley Energy Conservation Coalition, Part of the Rebuild America Program in Texas: Program Update
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
The Rebuild America program is network of
community-based partnerships that rebuilds
communities by promoting the efficient use of
energy. Rebuild America is coordinated at the
national level by sponsorship through the ...
Improved Air Volume Control Logic for VAV Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
In a VAV (variable air volume) system, the set
point of the static pressure (usually measured at 213
downstream of the main supply air duct) is
maintained by modulating the fan speed or inlet
guide vane position. The set ...
Restoration of Short Periods of Missing Energy Use and Weather Data Using Cubic Spline and Fourier Series Approaches: Qualitative Analysis
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
The paper presents seventeen approaches that use
cubic splines and Fourier series for restoring short
term missing data in time series of building energy
use and weather data. The study is based on twenty
samples of hourly ...
