Concepts In Passive Design #3 Passive Cooling Categorizations, Florida Solar Energy Center
FSEC Energy Research Center®
Editor's Note: While passive solar heating is relatively well evolved, passive cooling is only on the threshold of development, and many of its terms are new to the practicing professional. At the Fourth Annual Passive Cooling Conference this problem was addressed by William W. Holmes of the University of Nebraska with the presentation of a 10-point categorization of cooling techniques. We are indebted to Mr. Holmes for this contribution to the emerging field of passive cooling and present it here as a point of departure and working vocabulary for the design professional.

A major source of heat in buildings is direct solar radiation through east and west windows--welcome heat energy in cold weather, but a summertime problem. Since Florida has such a long cooling season and generally a short heating season, it is especially important to protect east and west walls, windows, and sliding glass doors from the summer sun while allowing adequate light to enter the building year-round. From a lighting standpoint, natural daylight is on the whole quite good but it can produce unwanted heat and visual glare if not properly controlled.

This research evaluated various mass transportation alternatives for the commuting students, faculty and staff of the University of Central Florida (U.C.F.), located at Orlando. The alternatives considered in this research are bus service, van service / minibus service, vanpool, carpool, and bicycle and pedestrian modes. During the life-time of the University the private automobile has been the only prevalent mode of transportation used by the U.C.F. commuters. Opinion surveys conducted in the summer of 1979 indicated that the U.C.F. commuters are confronted with a number of transportation problems including lack of parking spaces on campus, traffic congestion on the access …
Filtration Of Detained Stormwater Through Sand And Alum Sludge For Water Quality Control, Claude L. Cassagnol
Filtration Of Detained Stormwater Through Sand And Alum Sludge For Water Quality Control, Claude L. Cassagnol
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
Stormwater detention systems as they are frequently designed do not provide good water quality control of stormwater runoff. A filtration media to be used in conjunction with detention ponds to improve their pollutant removal efficiencies was tested at the University of Central Florida and found to be effective. The filtration media, which consisted of a mixture of sand and alum sludge, substantially improved effluent water quality. Average reductions of over 80 % were observed in concentrations of dissolved orthophosphorus, total orthophosphorus and total phosphorus. Reductions were also experienced in iron, aluminum, copper and zinc concentrations. A prototype filtration model is …

A Computer Simulation Of The Operations Of A Spent Nuclear Fuel Receiving And Storage Station, Jeanna Lorene Barnard
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
Spent nuclear fuel is received at a storage facility in heavily shielded casks transported by either rail or by truck. Once at the storage facility, the casks are inspected, emptied, decontaminated, and reshipped. Allied-General Nuclear Services' (AGNS) nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in Barnwell, South Carolina, is constructed but not yet licensed for spent nuclear fuel storage or reprocessing. Recently, however, AGNS was granted funds by the Department of Energy to prepare the necessary procedural and regulatory paperwork in order that the Fuel Receiving and Storage Station (FRSS) of the plant can be licensed by 1985. In this paper, the activities …

Small Scale Hydropower-Appropriate Technology For Rural Development In Lesser Developed Countries, Stephen R. Harper
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
Less Developed Countries (LDC's) now have a total of about 2.8 billion people, or approximately 70 percent of the total world population. World populations and current energy consumption are such that is all the world's countries came up to the U.S. per capita energy use, the world's consumption would multiply by a factor of seven. For the LDC's, energy development will be an increasingly important issue. Hydropower technology is on the shelf, and available now, of proven feasibility both technically and economically, and presents a sound and rational energy solution from the environmental viewpoint. It is a technology which could …
Risk Analysis - An Economic Comparison Of Oil And Coal Power Plants, Mohammad M. Iranmanesh
Risk Analysis - An Economic Comparison Of Oil And Coal Power Plants, Mohammad M. Iranmanesh
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
The demand for electric energy increases every year. However, due to recent changes in the U.S. energy supplies, a growing gas shortage forced suppliers to curtail deliveries of natural gas for power generation. Many utilities anticipating supply problems switched to burning more costly light distillate oil. Unfortunately the Arab boycott of 1973 and the following price increases for oil forced again utilities to seek a cheaper source of fuel, namely coal, as a substitute for oil. Even though the U.S. has abundant supply in coal, the use of coal in power generation was limited in the past because of a …
Evolution Of A Cooling Water Treatment Program At A Chemical Processing Plant, Lawrence P. Everson
Evolution Of A Cooling Water Treatment Program At A Chemical Processing Plant, Lawrence P. Everson
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
During the construction of a chemical processing plant, a polyphosphate product was selected for use as a corrosion inhibitor in the open recirculating cooling tower system. After several months of operation, problems in the system made evident the fact that polyphosphate as a corrosion inhibitor was not acceptable. An organic corrosion inhibitor was substituted for the phosphate, resulting in improved corrosion protection and the elimination of phosphate fouling.
The Separation Of Piperylene Concentrate By Extractive Distillation, Mary Jane Curnutte
The Separation Of Piperylene Concentrate By Extractive Distillation, Mary Jane Curnutte
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
Piperylene concentrate, the five-carbon olefin and diolefin by-product of ethylene production, is being produced in increasing quantities as liquid feedstocks become more prevalent. At present, the concentrate is used primarily in resin production for the adhesives industry. Since this use is economically unattractive, a separation of the concentrate into pure compounds is industrially desirable. The evaluation of the effectiveness of several solvents for extractive distillation of piperylene concentrate was performed. This study resulted in the selection of acetonitrile as the most effective and most economical solvent investigated. Various distillation conditions were studied and optimization was based on these results.

Two locations, Lake Ivanhoe and the Maitland interchange of Interstate 4, were selected to study the impact of bridge runoff on receiving water bodies. The Lake Ivanhoe location includes two similar bridges, one without scuppers and one with scuppers. The Maitland interchange site has several borr ponds which drain to Lake Lucien. Samples were collected from Lake Ivanhoe below the bridges and in the open lake away from the bridges. Also samples were collected from the east pond, west pond, and lake Lucien, at the Maitland interchange. Samples included water, sediments, plants and benthos to detect differences, if any, in …
Bilin: A Bilinear Transformation Computer Program And Its Applications, John Dana Greer
Bilin: A Bilinear Transformation Computer Program And Its Applications, John Dana Greer
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
Given a transfer function for a differential equation model, an approach for obtaining a solution is by way of bilinear transformation. The bilinear transform approach is a numerical integration scheme which gives a discrete approximation to the differential equation solution. BILIN applies a series of polynomial transformations to the transfer function H(s). As a result, H(s) is mapped into the complex z plane obtaining the discrete transfer function H(z). From H(z), the difference equation is obtained whose solution y(nT) approximates the actual differential solution y(t). Hence, BILIN provides a means for obtaining discrete transfer functions for the design of digital …

A Parametric Study Of Economical Energy Usage In Freeze Tunnels, Marc A. Harrison
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
An investigation into economical energy usage in freeze tunnels was conducted. Freeze tunnels are commonly used in the food processing industry to freeze products, and in some cases may use large amounts of electricity. An actual freeze tunnel was observed and modeled on a computer. A parameter study was conducted. The results of the parameter study indicated the efficiency and energy costs in freeze tunnels may vary widely. Important parameters included the Nusselt number, air temperature, and the ratio of fan work divided by the useful refrigeration effect. Although no single set of optimum conditions were found, methods for improving …
