The Cost-Effectiveness of Continuous Commissioning® Over the Past Ten Years
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-10)
Continuous Commissioning® data including savings, costs, and implemented measures from over 60 buildings and sites commissioned by staff from the Energy Systems Laboratory at Texas A&M University are presented. Measured ...
Report of Energy Efficiency Study and Metering/Utilities Profile for Electricity Deregulation at Texas A&M University – Commerce (TAMU–C) Commerce, Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M University, 1999)
The energy costs for TAMU-Commerce are very high when compared to most of the other universities in the TAMUs. For example, the price of $1.6 per square foot per year for utilities is nearly twice that of the Kingsville ...
Investigation of PVC Pipe Failure at Terrell State Hospital – Final Report
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), Texas A&M University, 2000)
At the request of Terrell State Hospital and MHMR, the Energy Systems Laboratory at Texas A&M University investigated the failure of the PVC pipes serving the chilled water loop at Terrell State Hospital. There were two ...
Continuous Commissioning® Opportunities in Hospital and Laboratory Facilities
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-10)
This paper compiles the Continuous Commissioning® (CC®) costs, savings, and opportunities implemented in 20 hospital and laboratory commissioning projects involving 48 buildings. The potential savings and costs from 25 CC ...
Improving Control of a Dual-Duct Single-Fan Variable Air Volume Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2003)
This paper discusses improved control strategies
for dual-duct single-fan variable air volume (VAV)
systems. Common control strategy for supply air
volume modulation is evaluated, and an improved air
volume control strategy ...
A Method for Simulating Heat Recovery Systems Using AirModel in Implementations of the ASHRAE Simplified Energy Analysis Procedure
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2005)
Airside Economizer- Comparing Different Control Strategies and Common Misconceptions
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-10)
Air-side economizer is broadly adopted in building HVAC design and operations. When the system is properly designed and the control sequence is properly implemented, air-side economizer provides significant energy savings. ...
Development of a Procedure for the Predictive Control Strategy of a Chilled Water Storage System
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
Thermal energy storage systems store the
thermal energy produced by the chiller plant in
periods of off-peak electrical demand or when
cheaper electricity is available. The stored thermal
energy is then withdrawn from the ...
Optimization Measures for Sporting and Special Event Facilities: Design and Operation
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
Reducing unnecessary building energy costs
is becoming more of a priority. Rising fuel
prices and a global emphasis on energy
efficiency are key contributing factors. This
push towards energy efficiency certainly applies
to ...
