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 ...
Impacts of Static Pressure Set Level on the HVAC Energy Consumption and Indoor Conditions
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1996)
Air static pressure must be maintained at a
certain level leaving the air-handing unit (AHU) to
force a suitable amount of air through the terminal
boxes. However, an excessive static pressure level is
often used due to ( ...
An Advanced Economizer Controller for Dual Duct Air Handling Systems - with a Case Application
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1996)
Heating penalty is expected when economizers
are applied to dual-duct air handling systems.
The heating penalty can even be higher than the
cooling savings when the hot air flow is higher
than the cold air flow. To avoid ...
A Prediction of Energy Savings Resulting from Building Infiltration Control
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1996)
Heat transfer through building walls
consists of three main components:
conduction heat transfer, solar gain and
infiltration heat transfer. An interaction
among these three heat transfer
components alters the effective ...
Operational Performance Evaluation of Boiler 9 at the TAMU Power Plant at College Station, Submitted to the Power Plant of Texas A&M University
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1996)
As part of the engineering assistance project, the ESL staff worked with operating staff at the power plant: (1) to evaluate the boiler efficiency of boiler 9 by using combustion analysis; (2) to evaluate gas and steam ...
Improving Building Energy System Performance by Continuous Commissioning
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1996)
The term Continuous Commissioning (CC) was first used by engineers at the Energy Systems Lab (ESL) at Texas A&M University to describe an ongoing process which improves the operation of buildings using measured hourly ...
