Model-Based Commissioning Methodology for Simple Duct System
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2004)
This paper presents how a simulation model is applied on air leakage and pressure distribution in a duct system and
how it is utilized for duct system commissioning on the three categories below. It focuses on a duct system, ...
Energy Efficiency in Buildings in Switzerland
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2004)
In Switzerland, a culture for low energy concepts is established. The procedure
for quality assurance during design, elaboration, construction, and acceptance
phases is based on detailed technical checklists. These procedures ...

(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)
Baseline Report for the Fort Hood Army Base: Sept. 1, 2002 - Aug. 31, 2003
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M University, 2003)
This report presents electricity, natural gas and cooling baselines for the thermal plant, buildings located in the 87000 block, III Corp building and other buildings that were determined to be part of the ESPC project at ...
How the Number and Placement of Sensors Controlling Room Air Distribution Systems Affect Energy Use and Comfort
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
This study assesses the impact of sensor
number and placement on the energy needed to
condition a typical office using several likely variants
of an underfloor air distribution system (UFAD).
The study uses an empirical-based ...
Four Years of On-Going Commissioning in CTEC-Varennes Building with a BEMS Assisted CX Tool
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2004)
The development of Building Energy Management Systems (BEMS) offers new opportunities to automate some
aspects of commissioning. Reduction of process cost and manual effort on site, transformation of a one time
application ...
Energy Management Program at Atlanta Postal Service Distribution Center
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2001)
The US Postal Service operates more than 38,000 post offices across the country and spends $350 million
annually on utilities (1). Driven by President Clinton's 1999 Executive Order that mandates a 35 percent
reduction in ...
An Analysis Method for Operations of Hot Water Heaters by Artificial Neural Networks
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2004)
Authors tried to apply an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to
estimation of state of building systems. The systems used in this study were
gas combustion water heaters. Empirical equations to estimate gas
consumption from ...
Monitoring and Verification Procedures Used in the Texas LoanSTAR and Rebuild America Programs
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2001)
The monitoring and verification procedures that
have been developed for the Texas LoanSTAR
program and the ESL's Rebuild America Program
have become a foundation for a number of other state
and federal M&V programs, including ...
Accounting for the Occupancy Variable in Inverse Building Energy Baselining Models
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2001)
The occupancy factor is often
underestimated in inverse modeling of building
energy use, or accounted for by grouping the
daily data in occupied and unoccupied groups
which are modeled separately. For instance, in
institutional ...
