Show moreBecause the world’s fossil fuel reserves are finite, it is essential to substantially improve the efficiency of all energy consumers. Heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) accounts for 45% of energy consumption in residential buildings. Thus, this project studied and proposed solutions to improve the efficiency of such systems. The project begins with an analysis of a cooling system using electric chillers for a new hypothetical residential community in the Chicago area. Then, two new hybrid configurations were proposed: the utilization of electric and absorption chillers and then this system was augmented with a Thermal Energy Storage (TES) system. A simulation environment based on Matlab/Simulink®, using the concepts of Economic Model Predictive Control (EMPC) was developed to evaluate the performance of these configurations. The main benefits found were the increasing energy efficiency, the environmental impacts reduction and a reduction of more than 70% in operating costs (in some cases, profit was generated).

Show moreIPRO 346 is put together to work with and assist Pentair Water Company. The main task is to collect condensate from commercial HVAC systems in attempt to quantify it and test the chemical content of it. These tasks will be completed so that a feasible use or uses can be developed for the condensate water. The use or uses will be backed by not only the collected data but market and business analysis as well. The uses for the collected condensate water and the data collected will be presented in a formal technical paper. This will include detailed information about the quantity and chemical content of the condensate. The uses proposed will be based on the amount of condensate produced and what Pentair products such as pumps and filters can be used to accomplish these uses. This will ultimately determine a „green‟ solution for condensate harvesting and will incorporate Pentair‟s existing products. The project plan is a report on the current work plan and the direction in which the IPRO is headed. This is subject to change as the summer semester progresses. It also includes a brief history and background about Pentair and condensate harvesting in general. Finally it includes a team breakdown which includes more specific tasks to be accomplished as well as a Gantt chart show the key deliverables and their deadlines.
