    • Arkansas Industrial Energy Clearinghouse - Successes and Lessons Learned from Creation to Implementation 
      Nutter, D. W.; Harding, A. C.; McKnight, S. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2011)
      This paper shares the successes and lessons learned during the development stage and first eight months of the Arkansas Industrial Energy Clearinghouse (ArkansasIEC). Through the state of Arkansas via ARRA funding, the ...
    • A Boiler Plant Energy Efficiency and Load Balancing Survey 
      Nutter, D. W.; Murphy, D. R. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1997-04)
      Daily energy use data was used to perform an energy efficiency survey of a medium-sized university boiler plant. The physical plant operates centralized mechanical plants to provide both chilled water and steam for building ...
    • LoanSTAR Energy Auditing: Update and Changes 
      Heffington, W. M.; Athar, A.; Britton, A. J.; Nutter, D. W.; Stuewe, C. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
      Annual savings identified by detailed LoanSTAR audits during the period January, 1989 -December, 1991 are $13.7 million with an investment cost of $46.1 million. These savings represent retrofit projects in state-owned ...
    • LoanSTAR Energy Conservation Audits: January 1989 - August 1990 
      Nutter, D. W.; Britton, A. J.; Muraya, N. K.; Heffington, W. M. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1990)
      Fourteen audit reports, covering seventy buildings and Texas' Governor's mansion, have been accepted as a part of the Texas LoanSTAR Program. Task 1 (the first of five) is responsible for audit reviews and assignments. ...
    • Modification and Validation of a Universal Thermodynamic Chiller Model Used to Evaluate the Performance of Water-Cooled Centrifugal Chillers 
      Figueroa, I. E.; Cathey, M.; Medina, M. A.; Nutter, D. W. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1998)
      This paper presents modifications made to the procedure used to develop a universal thermodynamic model of chillers (Gordon and Ng, 1995). The modifications were necessary to capture physical phenomena involved when water ...
    • Predicting Improved Chiller Performance Through Thermodynamic Modeling 
      Figueroa, I. E.; Cathey, M.; Medina, M. A.; Nutter, D. W. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1998-04)
      This paper presents two case studies in which thermodynamic modeling was used to predict improved chiller performance. The model predicted the performance (COP and total energy consumption) of water-cooled centrifugal ...
    • Texas LoanSTAR Monitoring and Analysis Program Progress Report 
      Britton, A. J.; Heffington, W. M.; Nutter, D. W. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M University; Department of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1990)
      Eleven audit reports have been accepted by the review staff at Texas A&M University. These eleven reports cover 3.8 million square feet of building space and two street-lighting projects. One engineer has been employed ...
    • Understanding the Needs of Arkansas School Districts Relative to Building Use and Control Utility Tracking Personnel and Facility Planning 
      Keazer, J. A.; Nutter, D. W. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)
