Non-Intrusive Electric Load Monitoring in Commercial Buildings
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
Increased interest in optimal control, energy scorekeeping and
fault detection for HVAC equipment in commercial buildings has
focused attention on instrumentation required to obtain the
desired data. In this paper we ...
Survey of Energy Use in Grocery Stores
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
This paper presents the results of an energy use survey assembled for 93 grocery stores in south Texas. All stores were of the same chain. Several conclusions were drawn. Total electricity consumption per square foot is ...
The Impact of Residential Air Conditioner Charging and Sizing on Peak Electrical Demand
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
Electric utilities have had a number of air conditioner rebate
and maintenance programs for many years. The purpose of
these programs was to improve the efficiency of the stock of
air conditioning equipment and provide ...
Integrated Resource Planning: A Dialogue with ELCON
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-04)
The oil price shocks of the 1970s were a precursor to
some fundamental changes in the way the supply and
demand for energy is viewed. One response to the events of
that period is the application of integrated resource ...
Membrane Separations Research
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-04)
The use of membranes for separating gaseous and liquid
mixtures has grown dramatically in the past 15 years.
Applications have been dominated by light gas separations and
water purification. During this pioneering period, ...
Industrial Demand-Side Management in Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-04)

Volumetric In Situ Electrical Heating: An Unexploited Electrotechnology
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-04)
The use of electrical energy to heat
large volumes of earth in place ("in situ")
offers significant advantages over
conventional in situ heat-transfer methods.
For example, where properly applied, the
near-wellbore ...
