Development of a Calibration Methodology for Code-compliant Simulation of a Case Study House in a Hot and Humid Climate
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2010-08)
This paper describes a comparison of the results between a code-compliant DOE-2 simulation and monthly utility bills for a case study house in College Station, Texas. The comparison of the results is a preliminary step ...
Energy Efficiency/Renewable Energy Impact in the Texas Emissions Reduction Plan (TERP)
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2007-12)
Low Impact, Affordable, Low Income Houses for Mexico
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2010-08)
This paper discusses an effort to develop low impact, affordable, low income houses for Mexico. Low impact houses are defined as houses with energy and water needs that are substantially reduced below levels corresponding ...
A Review of Ground Coupled Heat Pump Models Used in Whole-Building Computer Simulation Programs
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2010-08)
Increasingly, building owners are turning to ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems to improve energy efficiency. Ground-coupled heat pump (GCHP) systems with a vertical closed ground loop heat exchanger are one of the ...
A Methodology for Calculating Integrated NOx Emissions Reductions From Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EE/RE) Programs Across State Agencies in Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2007-12)
Analysis of Energy Recovery Ventilator Savings for Texas Buildings
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2009-11)
This analysis was conducted to identify the energy cost savings from retrofitting Texas buildings with air-to-air ERV (Energy Recovery Ventilator) systems. This analysis applied ERV and psychrometric equations in a bin-type ...
