Cool Storage Applications in the Texas LoanSTAR Program: Overview and Preliminary Results
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1994)
Cool Storage Systems (CSS) are becoming a popular demand side management tool for utilities because that helps them avoid costly plant expansions and reduces summer-time peak electricity demand. This paper presents an ...
Thermal Energy Measurement with Tangential Paddlewheel Flow Meters: Summary of Experimental Results and in-situ Diagnostics
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1994)
Recently third-party financing has become a popular mechanism for funding energy conservation retrofits in commercial/institutional buildings. Although many successful projects have been heralded by the press quite a few ...
Use of Energy Management and Control Systems for Performance Monitoring of Retrofit Projects: Preliminary Engineering Survey, USDOE Forrestal and Germantown Facility, Summary Report, USDOE Office of Conservation and Energy
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1991)
The purpose of this preliminary engineering survey of the USDOE Forrestal and Germantown
facilities is to determine whether existing EMCSs can be used for monitoring energy retrofits, and in
the case where this is not ...
The USDOE Forrestal Lighting Retrofit: Analysis of Electricity and Thermal Savings
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1995)
This report provides an overview of the lighting retrofit and the resultant electricity and thermal savings. It presents results from the whole-building monitoring effort that show that the measured gross electricity savings ...
Use of Energy Management and Control Systems for Performance Monitoring of Retrofit Projects: Final Summary Report for USDOE Office of Conservation and Energy, Final Revision, March 1993
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1991)
Traditionally, Energy Management and Control Systems (EMCSs) have been used to control
HVAC, lighting, fire and security systems in buildings. Few EMCSs are used for long term
trending and analysis of energy use (i.e., ...
Potential Energy Savings from Optimized Schedule and Economizer Cycles in the Moody Library at UTMB
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1993)
This report presents the results of a study which was initiated in order to estimate the potential energy savings due to optimizing the HVAC operation schedule and using economizer cycles in the Moody Library Building ...
Texas LoanSTAR Monitoring and Analysis Program—Monitoring and Advisory and Review Committee (January 1991)
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1991)
Texas LoanSTAR Monitoring and Analysis Program: Report to the Monitoring and Analysis Review Committee, August 1991 (Volume I)
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1991)
The LoanSTAR program has now completed its second prototype year. This report is Volume I of a two volume set that documents the progress since the January 1991 MARC meeting. This first voume contains photocopies of the ...
Potential Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Savings in the John Sealy South Building at UTMB
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1993)
The LoanSTAR Monitoring and Analysis Group was requested by UTMB to investigate O&M measures in their five LoanSTAR program buildings. This report describes the suggested O&M measures in John Sealy South Building, an ...
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 ...
