Effects of Radiant Barrier Systems on Ventilated Attics in a Hot and Humid Climate
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-05)
Results of side-by-side radiant barrier experiments using two identical 144 ft2 (nominal) test houses are presented. The test houses responded very similarly to weather variations prior to the retrofit. The temperatures ...
Energy Savings Assessment for the Robert E. Johnson State Office Building in Austin, Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
U.S. businesses and institutions spend an
estimated $175 billion per year for energy. Of that, the
fraction under performance contracts and energy
service agreements is currently growing, aided by
cheaper monitoring ...
