Pre-Retrofit Lighting Study at the University of Texas at Arlington
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
In the summer of 1993 the University of Texas at Arlington Physical Plant Department submitted a request to the Energy Systems Lab to conduct a lighting study to determine the most cost-effective method of implementing ...
An Improved Multipyranometer Array for the Measurement of Direct and Diffuse Solar Radiation
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
This paper describes an improved
multipyranometer array (MPA) for the continuous
remote measurement of direct and diffuse solar
radiation. The MPA described in this paper is an
improvement over previously published MPA ...
Use of NWS Weather Measurements for Cross-checking Local Weather Measurements
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
This paper discusses the use of an independent
network of remote weather stations for building
energy analysis to assist agencies participating in the
Texas LoanSTAR Monitoring and Analysis
Program. A review of the sensors ...
A Bin Method for Calculating Energy Conservation Retrofit Savings in Commercial Buildings
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
The calculation of measured energy savings from
energy conservation retrofits is an important step in the
verification of the success of a retrofit (Claridge et al.
1992). Several methods for calculating the savings ...
Development of Graphical Indices for Displaying Large Scale Building Energy Data Sets
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
Graphs are an effective way of displaying
quantitative and statistical information.
Unfortunately, only a few studies have systematically
looked at presenting building energy data in forms
which are both informative and ...
Instructions for "The Great Energy Predictor Shootout II: Measuring Retrofit Energy Savings"
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1994)
Based on the overwhelming response to the first Building Energy Predictor Shootout a second predictor Shootout has been developed to again compare how well different empirical models predict building energy data from several ...
Preliminary Study of O&M Opportunities at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Submitted to The Energy Management and Operations Department at UTMB Galveston
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1994)
At the request of the Energy Management and Operations Department at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, the Energy Systems Laboratory at the Texas A&M University performed the preliminary study of O&M ...
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 ...
Reducing Building Energy Costs Using Optimized Operation Strategies for Constant Volume Air Handling Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
Building energy consumption can be substantially
reduced after implementing what we call Extended
O&M Measures. The Extended O&M Measures are a
scientific refinement of traditional O&M measures.
Specifically, they ...
