(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2012)Cooling towers are used extensively for numerous industrial, residential, and commercial applications. Yet despite how common their uses, operators often do not know how to properly evaluate and optimize their performance. ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)Many small and medium sized commercial buildings are energy hogs. Typically they were designed and built to meet low first cost criteria. Control system capability is usually minimal, insulation is thin, glass areas are ...

(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)The recovery of waste heat energy is one element of a complete energy conservation plan. In addition to contributing to the goal of saving energy, utilization of waste heat is also an important source of cost savings. This ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1990-06)Sulfur removal by direct injection of calcium-based sorbents is an attractive option for emerging coal utilization technologies. Recent experimental results indicate the feasibility of capture by direct injection into hot ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2000-04)An investment-grade compressed air audit, analysis, design, and upgrade in an industrial facility requires a thorough understudying of original design basis, current problem definition, goal settings, load assessment, base ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)Conservation of energy is a frequently cited goal of utility rate regulation. Implementing this goal through modification of consumer behavior has been achieved with varying degrees of success through rate design, incentive ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)The possibility that serious health hazards may be caused by buildings and their mechanical systems has recently become a major issue, now being popularized as "sick building syndrome." An increasingly widespread ...
