Cooling-Only Prism Analysis of Eleven College Station Homes and Interpretation of Building Physical Parameters
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
A cooling-only PRISM analysis has been
performed on eleven new residences in College
Station using electricity billing data over an entire
year. This study revealed that, provided one corrects
for effects such as vacation ...
Effect of Radiant Barrier Technology on Summer Attic Heat Load in South Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
The objective of the study was to experimentally
evaluate the performance of radiant barriers in
single-family occupied housing units in South
Texas. Ceiling heat fluxes, attic air temperatures,
indoor air temperatures, ...
Dehumidification Without Re-heat Using Face and Bypass Dampers
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
Installations with chill water cooling, needing
constant air volume and dehumidification,
traditionally use a draw through air handling unit
with a cooling coil and a re-heat coil.
Dehumidification is achieved by overcooling ...
A Calibration Methodology for Retrofit Projects Using Short-Term Monitoring and Disaggregated Energy Use Data
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1996)
This paper presents an improved methodology to
calibrate energy simulation models to better represent
the actual energy use breakdowns in existing buildings.
The goal of this methodology is to help architects
and engineers ...
Residential Air Conditioner Direct Load Control "Energy Partners Program"
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
Demand side management
programs like Energy Partners
can provide an effective peak
reducing capability which
within a carefully designed
integrated resource plan can
help to ensure that the
system's load requirements are
met ...
Ventilation Air Preconditioning Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1996)
Increased outside ventilation air
requirements demand special attention to
how that air will be conditioned. In winter,
the incoming air may need preheating; in
summer. the mixed air may be too humid for
effective ...
Designing a Thermal Energy Storage Program for Electric Utilities
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
Electric utilities are looking at thermal
energy storage technology as a viable demand side
management (DSM) option. In order for this
DSM measure to be effective, it must be
incorporated into a workable, well-structured
utility ...
A Comparison of Open Versus Closed Systems in Thermal Storage Applications
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1990)
The use of thermal storage, by its very nature,
requires a large storage vessel. Depending
upon the technology employed, this can vary
from as little as 1.6cuft./ton-hour, up to
15cuft./ton-hour.
The result can be storage ...
Energy Savings in Food Processing Dehumidification
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1994)
Food processors have the unique
responsibility of maintaining environmental,
process and sanitation standards for government
and consumers. Usually the food plant
is a large facility with many sources of
contamination, all ...
Optimizing Electric Humidifier Operation with an Air Side Economizer
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1996)
Air side economizer cycle is a control scheme that is
often used in WAC systems to reduce cooling
energy consumption by introducing variable
quantities of ambient air into a conditioned space to
satisfy the space cooling ...
