Laboratory evaluation of Conveyorized Pizza Ovens using ASTM test protocol 1817. A pizza conveyor oven is an appliance that carries the food product on a moving conveyor into and through a heated chamber. The chamber may be heated by gas or electric forced convection, radiant, or quartz tubes. Top...

This project is a field evaluation of Occupancy Sensor coupled LED lighting for use in a walk-in cold storage. The project will evaluate the performance of the lighting and sensor technologies and energy savings...

This project will perform a series of field tests for a major fast food chain's current universal holding cabinets (UHC) and a new high-density universal holding cabinet (UHC-HD). The current UHC is configured to have 4 columns and 3 rows with the ability to cook and hold 12 menu items. The new...

Lab evaluation of combination ovens using ASTM standard test methods. Purpose of the study is to develop a database of energy performance metrics that can be used to develop and enhance work...

This project is being conducted to field test advanced lighting and lighting controls system design that will be appropriate and acceptable for typical executive suites. This project will examine the performance characteristics of highly controlled lighting systems in a real office environment...

This project will consist of the design and installation of an energy management system and kiosk to evaluate energy usage for the various energy efficiency measures installed in the building: direct/indirect evaporative cooler, VRF System, and domestic hot water and space heating system at a...

LED pool lighting is an energy efficient technology that lights up the swimming pool while using less energy than incandescent lamps. Previous Emerging Technology study (ET10SCE1130) logged commercial pool operating hours that was pretty typical of most commercial pools; dusk to dawn or dusk to...

This project will be performing “proof of concept” testing of a controls system, that claims the ability to provide tuning, scheduling, daylight harvesting, occupancy sensing, and individual controls for the lighting system being...

Online Integrated Demand Side Management service that incents consumers to conserve energy by leveraging social networks and social gaming. The internet-based platform enables social gaming (and other internet-based) companies to gain new revenue streams by trading their in-game currency for...

Bi-level and demand response (DR) capabilities will be demonstrated in corridor lighting for commercial and institutional market sectors through the use of step-dimming and/or full-dimming ballasts combined with occupancy sensors and DR controls in retrofit applications. The objective of the Smart...
