Study on Auto-DR and Pre-cooling of Commercial Buildings with Thermal Mass in California
This paper discusses how to optimize pre-cooling strategies for buildings in a hot California climate zone with the Demand Response Quick Assessment Tool (DRQAT), a building energy simulation tool. This paper outlines the procedure used to develop and calibrate DRQAT simulation models, and applies this procedure to eleven field test buildings. The results of a comparison between the measured de...
متن کاملPre-cooling for Performance in the Tropics
Pre-cooling improves power output by up to 7% in continuous exercise lasting less than an hour in tropical conditions. Although there are various cooling methods, practical and effective modes with suitable durations are yet to be determined for intermittent or more prolonged exercise. Research factoring in solar radiation and any placebo effect is necessary to determine the optimal strategies ...
متن کاملCooling Concrete Aggregates: Challenges in Design and Simulation
Using hot aggregates in concrete making results in drop in compressive strength of the produced concrete. Various methods have been proposed for cooling concrete aggregates. In this paper we propose a modified design for a cooling drum to be used in this regard. Preliminary simulation of the heat flow during the cooling process in the drum is analyzed with the objective of optimizing the design...
متن کاملProductivity Improvement of Pre-cast Concrete Installation
The production process of pre-cast concrete installation is analyzed to investigate possible ways for onsite productivity improvement. Although manufactured construction enjoys higher quality and productivity, it is observed that it suffers delays compared to site built construction. Delay causes and respective severity are analyzed for improvement. Firstly, the production process is investigat...
متن کاملPre-cooling systems for small-scale producers
Purpose of review: To identify pre-cooling systems and cooling methods that are suitable for smaller scale horticultural producers Findings: A range of pre-cooling systems are available for small-scale horticultural producers and their suitability is described, in terms of availability, ease of use, capital cost, energy requirements. Expected benefits of using pre-cooling are also discussed. Li...
