    • Analysis of the Energy Savings Potential in K-5 Schools in Hot and Humid Climates 
      Im, P.; Haberl, J. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
      This paper presents the analysis of the energy savings potential in K-5 schools in hot and humid climates. For the analysis, an existing K-5 school in Central Texas was selected as a case study school, and the building ...
    • Case Studies of Systems Integration through Energy Simulation During Early Design Phase 
      Upadhyaya, K.; McLean, D. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
      The paper presents two case studies, a commercial & a community project, in Houston Texas, where energy simulation and a decision matrix were used to solve budget conflicts and meet LEED EA-1 requirements. The first case ...
    • Case Study of an Innovative HVAC System with Integral Dehumidifier 
      Shirey, D. B.; Raustad, R. A. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
      In most applications, heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment is controlled to maintain an indoor dry-bulb set point temperature. Moisture removal by the HVAC system is considered to be an operational ...
    • Energy Performance Aspects of a Florida Green Roof Part 2 
      Sonne, J.; Parker, D. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
      Green roof installation in the United States is growing at a significant rate. There are a number of reasons for this growth including rainwater runoff reduction and aesthetic benefits. Energy performance evaluations of ...
    • Saving Money Through Employee Motivation and Participation in Energy Conservation 
      Francis, G. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)
      It is a particular pleasure for me to be here with you today to take part in the Texas Industrial Commission's 1982 Industrial Energy Conference. 'Energy', being an essential, if not the most essential part of the economic ...
    • Steam System Optimization: A Case Study 
      Iordanova, N.; Venkatesan, V. V. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2000-04)
      This paper highlights the study findings in a steam system in a plant from a multinational Petrochemical giant in an European country. The steam system operates with an annual budget of $8.9 million (local currency was ...
    • Validation of the eCALC Commercial Code-Compliant Simulation Versus Measured Data from an Office Building in a Hot and Humid Climate 
      Cho, S.; Haberl, J. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
      This paper compares the results of a calibrated simulation of a case-study building versus simulation using the web-based eCALC code-compliant commercial simulation program (Haberl et al., 2004). Previously, as-built ...
