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 ...
New Peak Moisture Design Data in the 1997 ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1998)
Chapter 26 of the 1997 edition of the Handbook of
Fundamentals published by ASHRAE (American Society
of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning
Engineers) contains climatic design data that has been
completely revised, ...
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 ...
The Risks and Rewards of Participation in Demand Side Bidding Programs; an Energy Service Company Perspective
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
The purpose of this paper is to summarize
from an ESCO viewpoint some of the risks and
rewards of participating in DSM bidding programs
before deciding to submit a bid.
Development of a Humid Climate Definition
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1998)
The role of humidity in indoor air quality has
become of increasing concern in recent years. High
indoor humidities can result in microbial growth on
building surfaces, resulting in poor indoor air quality,
as well as ...
The Impact of Residential Air Conditioner Charging and Sizing on Peak Electrical Demand
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
Electric utilities have had a number of air conditioner rebate
and maintenance programs for many years. The purpose of
these programs was to improve the efficiency of the stock of
air conditioning equipment and provide ...
Reducing Life Cycle Cost By Energy Saving in Pump Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1999-05)
Pumps consume about 15% of all electricity generated world wide. In the USA alone this accounts for over 130TWh per annum. A saving of only 1% would amount to $80 million in electricity cost. The importance of energy saving, ...
Beyond Energy Savings: Case Studies on Enhancing Productivity and Reducing Costs Through Energy Efficiency Investments
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1999-05)
Promoting energy efficiency to corporate CEOs and CFOs based on energy savings alone has had limited success. Experience shows that energy efficiency projects' non-energy benefits often exceed the value of energy savings, ...
Compressed Air System Optimization
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1999-05)
Several years ago I went to a gas station and noticed that my car's tires were low on air. I saw the gas station had an air compressor, but it cost a quarter to use the compressor. I paid my quarter and used the compressor. ...
Field Evaluation of Desiccant-Integrated HVAC Systems: A Review of Case Studies in Multiple Commercial/Institutional Building Types
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1998)
An independent field research effort co-funded by
the Gas Research Institute and The U.S. Department
of Energy (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory is
documenting the performance and energy usage
characteristics of active ...
