Effect of Refrigerant Charge, Duct Leakage, and Evaporator Air Flow on the High Temerature Performance of Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
An experimental study was conducted to quantify the effect of several installation items on the high outdoor ambient temperature performance of air conditioners. These installation items were: improper amount of refrigerant ...
Effects of Hydrophobic Surface Treatments on Dropwise Condensation and Freezing of Water
(Texas A&M University, 1995-12)
The effects of hydrophobic coatings on the dropwise condensation process for a flat horizontal copper plate held at a temperature much lower than the surrounding air
was investigated. Extensive qualitative and quantitative ...
Effect of Backfill on the Performance of a Vertical U-Tube Ground Coupled Heat Pump
(Texas A&M University, 1995-08)
The present work is concerned with developing a discretized analytical model to investigate the effect of a backfill on the performance of a vertical U-tube ground-coupled heat pump. This work involves the development ...
Performance of Energy Management Control Systems (EMCS) in Selected Texas LoanSTAR Buildings
(Texas A&M University, 1995-08)
This report describes an investigation of energy use at various LoanSTAR sites. The effects of installing Energy Management Control Systems (EMCS) on electricity consumption was studied at four LoanSTAR sites: Stroman ...
Aerosol Deposition in Transport Lines
(Texas A&M University, 1995-12)
Particle deposition in contraction fittings with half-angles of 12 degrees, 45 degrees, and 90 degrees; expansion fittings with half-angles of 3 degrees, 6 degrees, 12 degrees, 45 degrees, and 90 degrees; and ...
Development of Fourier Series and Artificial Neural Network Approaches to Model Hourly Energy Use in Commercial Buildings
(Texas A&M University, 1995-05)
This dissertation develops Fourier series and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) approaches to model hourly energy use in commercial buildings and illustrates application to data-screening.
The procedure for modeling hourly ...
