Simulation of the Post-Retrofit Thermal Energy Use for the University Teaching Center (UTC) Building with the Use of Simplified System Models
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M UniversityDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Texas A&M University, 1991)
Several state owned buildings with dual-duct constant volume (DDCV) systems have
been retrofitted with energy efficient variable air volume systems (VAV) as part of the
Texas LoanSTAR Program. One method of determining ...
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 ...
Cooling Tower Energy Conservation Through Hydraulic Fan Drives
(Energy Systems Laboratory, 1991-06)
Many companies offer gearboxes, shafts, and couplings for cooling tower fan drives, with little or no innovation. These companies have traditionally been purchased with an emphasis on cost and not "Return on Investment!" ...
Cooling Towers--Energy Conservation Strategies Preservative Spray Treatment Maintains Cooling Tower
(Energy Systems Laboratory, 1991-06)
Several problems common to most industrial wood framed cooling towers can be easily controlled with annual preservative spray treatment applications to the plenum area framework and drift eliminators. It eliminates the ...

Turbine Steam Path Audits for Improved Performance and Profitability
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
This paper describes the use and value
of conducting steam path audits in
turbines. Critical measurements and
observations made during overhaul identify
and quantify the effects of component
degradations upon turbine ...
Protective Coatings for Turbomachinery
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
The turbomachinery used by utilities and industrial plants represent the highest level of aerodynamic design and engineering. It is critical that airfoils and other gas or steam path components maintain their shape and ...
Process Integration Study of a Food Plant
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
This paper presents the results of a recent process
integration study by TENSA Services of a food plant.
It shows the merit of pinch technology against the
traditional wisdom in plant utility management.
Through a ...
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., ...
