Influence of Attic Radiant Barrier Systems on Air Conditioning Demand in an Utility Pilot Project
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
A utility monitoring project has evaluated radiant
barrier systems (RBS) as a new potential demand site
management (DSM) program. The study examined
how the retrofit of attic radiant barriers can be
expected to alter utility ...
Impact of Reflective Roofing on Cooling Electrical Use and Peak Demand in a Florida Retail Mall
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2002)
Architects in hot climates have long recognized
that reflective roof colors can reduce building cooling
load. Experimentation spanning nearly three decades
has shown that white roofing surfaces can
significantly reduce ...
Performance Assessment of Photovoltaic Attic Ventilator Fans
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2000)
Controlling summer attic heat gain is important to reducing air conditioning energy use in homes in hot-humid climates. Both heat transfer through ceilings and t attic duct systems can make up a large part of peak cooling ...
