Investigative Tools and Techniques for Indoor Air Quality Studies
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
Indoor air quality
problems are diverse and often
complex. Adverse indoor air
quality problems can exist
which create symptomatic
conditions for building
occupants. Often, the exact
cause, or causes, of the
substandard ...
Field Performance of a Ground-Coupled Heat Pump in Abilene, Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
A nominal 10.6 kW (3 ton), vertical-configuration
ground-coupled heat pump was
installed in Abilene, Texas in December 1989
and was monitored until May 1993 using a
remote data acquisition system. The unit was
installed ...
Residential Load Management Program and Pilot
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
In 1986 LCRA embarked on
residential load management to
control peak summer loads. At
that time, LCRA was considered
a summer peaking utility, and
residential air conditioning
and water heating systems were
selected for ...
Measured Natural Cooling Enhancement of a While House Fan
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
An experimental study was carried out in the
summer of 1991 to investigate the natural cooling
potential of use of a whole house fan in Central
Florida's hot and humid climate. The residential
building, in Cocoa Beach, FL, ...
A Bin Method for Calculating Energy Conservation Retrofit Savings in Commercial Buildings
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
The calculation of measured energy savings from
energy conservation retrofits is an important step in the
verification of the success of a retrofit (Claridge et al.
1992). Several methods for calculating the savings ...
Development of Graphical Indices for Displaying Large Scale Building Energy Data Sets
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
Graphs are an effective way of displaying
quantitative and statistical information.
Unfortunately, only a few studies have systematically
looked at presenting building energy data in forms
which are both informative and ...
Analysis of a Fabric/Desiccant Window Cavity Dehumidifier
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
This paper presents the results of an exploratory
study of a fabric/desiccant window cavity dehumidifier
system for possible use in commercial buildings.
The objective was to evaluate fabrics commonly used
in buildings, ...
Determination of Retrofit Savings Using a Calibrated Building Energy Simulation Model
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
This paper presents the development of a
methodology to determine retrofit energy savings in
buildings when few measured preretrofit data are
available. Calibration of the DOE-2 building energy
analysis computer program ...
Cost-effective Lighting Retrofits: Lessons Learned
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
Facility managers and energy engineers
contemplating a lighting retrofit are confronted with
a confusing array of product and system options.
This paper presents my experience in trial and final
installations. Also presented ...
Micro-Management of Lighting Controls Projects
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
A common lighting project is to evaluate a block of
rooms for savings and payback from the use of
photocells or occupancy sensors. The designer counts
the fixtures to be controlled, calculates the watts used
and then the ...
