Amid the information era, energy consumption of IDC Computer Room Air Conditioning (CRAC) system is becoming increasingly serious. Thus there is growing concern over energy saving and consumption reduction. Based on the analysis of the energy saving application of the air conditioning system in the present computer room, a new energy saving method of the IDC CRAC system, which presents energy s...

retrofit of heat exchanger networks for energy saving and/or debottlenecking is one of important aspects of process engineering. pinch technology, as the most efficient tool for the analysis of these networks, has been applied to hundreds of such projects and shown satisfactory results. however, all the existing methods for debottlenecking, using pinch technology, are either based on assumed he...

A power-saving management for OLTP applications has become an important task for user budgets and datacenter operations. This paper presents a novel power-saving method for multiple disk drives based on knowledge of OLTP application behaviors. We report detail analysis of power consumption of disk drives and I/O characteristics of OLTP application. We then show experimental and simulation resul...

A new method pinch analysis is introduced to discuss design optimization of the air-conditioning refrigeration system from the point of view of saving energy and saving material, and the evaluation principle of system economy is built up. The method avoids the defect of traditional design method using experience, easy to realize optimum match between system component parts. c Cp COP F G H M p P...

The common procedure for isolating genes of interest is to screen cDNA or genomic libraries with nucleic acid probes by filter hybridization (1). However, this is a time consuming and laborintensive process, especially when the complexity of the library is great and there is a large number of bactenophage plaques to screen. Here we describe the use of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (2) to ...

Optimization of energy production systems is a relevant issue that must be considered in order to follow the fossil fuels consumption reduction policies and CO2 emission regulation. Increasing electricity production from renewable resources (e.g., photovoltaic systems and wind farms) is desirable but its unpredictability is a cause of problems for the main grid stability. A system with multiple...

The basic developing objects of modern society are low carbon and energy saving. We must change the traditional high energy consuming building ways into modern novel energy saving buildings. In this paper, the development of modern building energy saving technology was reviewed and concluded. On this basis, designing ways and methods for energy saving system was proposed from the points of wall...
