FSEC Energy Research Center®

The effects of two readily available air-conditioner control strategies on dehumidification performance are discussed: fan "auto," in which the indoor air circulation fan cycles on and off along with the compressor, and fan "on," in which the fan operates continuously regardless of the on or off status of the compressor. Measured performance data are presented on two air-conditioning systems - a packaged terminal direct expansion, constant volume air conditioner without capacity modulation and a unitary direct expansion air conditioner with dual-speed compressor and indoor air fan motors. Measurements of the condensate removal from the air conditioner as well as its …

Selected Client Characteristics And Their Relationship To Successful Outcome In A Vocational Rehabilitation Program, Helen Harmon Jan 1987

Selected Client Characteristics And Their Relationship To Successful Outcome In A Vocational Rehabilitation Program, Helen Harmon

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) had its beginning in 1918, when Congress granted to the Federal Board of Vocational Education the power to provide for the training of "any disabled veteran who was unable to carry on a gainful occupation, to resume his former occupation, or to enter upon some other occupation, or having resumed or entered upon such occupation was unable to continue the same successfully." (U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, 1972). Called the Soldiers Rehabilitation Act, this measure made clear the basic goals of vocational rehabilitation. In 1943, a milestone year, services were extended to all disabled individuals …


Utility Analysis: Estimating The Sdy Parameter For Accounting Supervisors, Terry P. Brownson Jan 1987

Utility Analysis: Estimating The Sdy Parameter For Accounting Supervisors, Terry P. Brownson

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Personnel decisions have the potential to influence an entire organization. The effects of these decisions are more credible and relevant when quantified. Historically, benefits were defined in correlational statistics, i.e., validity coefficients. But the increasing demand is for a bottom-line or dollar-value definition. The utility concept presents a methodology for providing the dollar value impact on performance of a personnel intervention program. One parameter of a utility analysis model is the standard deviation of job performance in dollars (SDy). This research develops a SDy value for the yearly production contribution of a first level line accounting supervisor to be used …


Influence Of Bromide Upon Trihalomethane Formation And Speciation, Thomas J. Christ Jan 1987

Influence Of Bromide Upon Trihalomethane Formation And Speciation, Thomas J. Christ

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This research investigated the influence of bromide-ion concentrations upon trihalomethane (THM) formation and speciation. There is some speculation that bromide will increase the amount of THMs on a mass and/or molar basis. Previous research had indicated that bromide will affect the speciation to form the more brominated forms of THMs, but the extent of this speciation has not been clearly defined. Speciation is important when evaluating THM removal processes. The brominated species may require activated carbon for removal as opposed to air stripping for removal of the volatile species (chloroform).

To investigate the role of bromide ion, a half-fractional, factorial …


Human Factors Compatibility Concerns In The Selection Of Display Technologies For Computer And Data Terminals, Francis C. Westerfield Jan 1987

Human Factors Compatibility Concerns In The Selection Of Display Technologies For Computer And Data Terminals, Francis C. Westerfield

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Human factors considerations are often overlooked in the selection of electronic computer displays. When cost is used as the only determining factor, the resulting product may not be commercially successful because of an inadequate display.

To help avoid this situation, designers and users should be aware of the various factors involved in proper display selection. These factors were developed by a synthesis of existing scientific and industrial literature on the subject and are explained in this paper.

The first factor is a basic knowledge of the structure, characteristics, and function of the human visual system. The theory of sight, anatomy …
