The Measured Energy Impact of Infiltration Under Dynamic Conditions
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
Energy consumption due to air infiltration is customarily assumed to equal the mass flow rate times the specific enthalpy difference between the inside and outside air. Anderlind showed theoretically that this represents ...
Disaggregating Cooling Energy Use of Commercial Buildings Into Sensible and Latent Fractions From Whole-Building Monitored Data: Methodology and Advantages
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
In hot and humid climates, where summers are both warm and humid, the latent cooling can be a significant portion of the total cooling load (as much as 40%). Typically the monitored data only includes whole-building heating ...
Survey of Energy Use in Grocery Stores
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
This paper presents the results of an energy use survey assembled for 93 grocery stores in south Texas. All stores were of the same chain. Several conclusions were drawn. Total electricity consumption per square foot is ...
Calculating Energy and Demand Retrofit Savings for Stroman High School: Interim Report
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1992)
As part of the LoanSTAR program, Stroman High School in Victoria Texas underwent
two retrofits: a) an absorption chiller was changed to an electric vapor compression
chiller, and b) an EMCS system was installed after ...
Calculating Energy and Demand Retrofit Savings for Victoria High School: Interim Report
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1992)
As part of the LoanSTAR program, Victoria High School in Victoria, Texas underwent

The Measured Energy Impact of Infiltration in an Outdoor Test Cell
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
The energy consumption calculation of house envelopes assumes that conduction heat loss is independent on air infiltration heat loss, and that energy consumption is the sum of these losses. Anderlind [1985], Liu [1987], ...
A Field Study on Residential Air Conditioning Peak Loads During Summer in College Station, Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1992)
Severe capacity problems are experienced by electric utilities during hot summer afternoons.
Several studies have found that, in large part, electric peak loads can be attributed to residential airconditioning
use. This ...
Prairie View A&M University Whole Campus Energy Report Update
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1992)
Prairie View A&M University started a large scale energy management program in 1987 and 1988. This
updated report presents an analysis of whole-campus energy consumption at the Prairie View A&M Campus
where whole-campus ...
Daylighting Design Tools in Atria for Minimum Cooling Loads in Atrium Buildings
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
The daylighting and sunlighting value of an atrium are considered the main reasons for including the atrium use in the built environment. However, most atria today are either overlit, which causes tremendous cooling loads, ...
