Case Study of an Innovative HVAC System with Integral Dehumidifier
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
In most applications, heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment is controlled to maintain an indoor dry-bulb set point temperature. Moisture removal by the HVAC system is considered to be an operational ...
Energy Efficiency/Renewable Energy (EERE) Projects in Texas Public Schools
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2010-08)
This paper presents the preliminary results from an analysis of the energy saving potential in new and existing Texas Independent School Districts (ISDs). The analysis was performed using a K-12 simulation model based on ...
Exploring Cost-Effective, High Performance Residential Retrofits for Affordable Housing in the Hot Humid Climate
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2010-08)
In 2009, a Department of Energy Building America team led by the Florida Solar Energy Center began working with partners to find cost-effective paths for improving the energy performance of existing homes in the hot humid ...
Detailed Analysis of the Thermal Mass Credits in a Code-Traceable DOE-2 Simulation of the 2001 IECC for a Single-Family Residence in Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
This paper presents the results of a study that investigates the thermal mass credits in the 2001 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) (ICC 1999, 2001) for a single-family residence in Texas using the DOE-2 building ...
Green and High Performance Factory Crafted Housing
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
In the U.S., factory-built housing greater than 400 square feet is built either to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) code for mobile homes or site-built codes for modular housing. During the last ...
Condensate Water Collection for an Institutional Building in Doha, Qatar: An Opportunity for Water Sustainability
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
In almost all modern buildings today, HVAC equipment is used to provide a conditioned indoor environment while using large amounts of energy to cool, filter, and dehumidify the air in these structures. This is especially ...
Design, Construction, Transportation, Operation and Post-Occupancy Analysis for the Texas A&M Solar Decathlon House
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
This paper describes the design, construction, transportation, operation and post occupancy analysis of the 2007 Texas A&M Solar Decathlon House (TAMU SD house). The TAMU SD house was developed to be a modular house that ...
The BLOOMhouse:Zero Net Energy Housing
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
The 2007 University of Texas Solar Decathlon House is called the BLOOMhouse because it represents the “seed” of new ideas for zero net energy housing. The University of Texas student team developed a prefabricated 7.9 kW ...
