Integrated Systems + Principles Approach
2
Source: California Energy Commission (2000) Manufacturing Energy End-Use Breakdown
3
Energy Systems –Lighting –Motor drive –Fluid flow –Compressed air –Steam and hot water –Process heating –Process cooling –Heating, ventilating and air conditioning –Cogeneration
4
Principles of Energy Efficiency Inside Out Analysis Understand Control Efficiency Think Counter-flow Avoid Mixing Match Source Energy to End Use Whole-system, Whole-time Frame Analysis
5
Integrated Systems + Principles Approach Integrated systems + principles approach (ISPA) = Systems approach + Principles of energy efficiency ISPA is both effective and thorough.

1. Inside-out Approach
7
Inside-out Approach
8
Inside-out: Amplifies Savings Reduce pipe friction: Savings = 1.00 kWh Pump 70% eff: Savings = 1.43 kWh Drive 95% eff: Savings = 1.50 kWh Motor 90% eff: Savings = 1.67 kWh T&D 91% eff: Savings = 1.83 kWh Powerplant 33% eff: Savings = 5.55 kWh
9
Inside-out: Reduces Costs Original design: 95 hp in 14 pumps Re-design: –Bigger pipes: p = c / d 5 (doubling d reduces p by 97%) –Layout pipes then equipment shorter runs, fewer turns, valves, etc… –7 hp in 2 pumps
10
Avoid Outside-in Thinking Traditional Analysis Sequence for Reducing Energy Use Traditional Analysis Sequence for Reducing Waste Result: Incremental improvement at high cost
11
Think from Inside Out! Inside-Out Analysis Sequence for Reducing Energy Use Inside-Out Analysis Sequence for Reducing Waste Result: Significant improvement at minimal cost
12
2. Understand Control Efficiency Systems design for peak load, but operate at part-load System efficiency generally changes at part load Recognize and modify systems with poor part- load (control) efficiency
13
Control Efficiency
14
Air Compressor Control FP = FP 0 + FC (1 – FP 0 )
15
Power and Flow Control
16
Chiller Control
17
Boiler Control
18
Data Scatter Indicates Poor Control
19
3. Think Counter Flow Heat transfer Fluid flow
20
Counter-flow Improves Heat Exchange Q T T x x Q Parallel Flow Counter Flow
21
Stack Furnace Pre-heats Charge Reverb Furnace Stack Furnace
22
Molten Glass Transport: Each Exhaust Port Is A Zone
23
Counter-flow Within Zones Increases convection heat transfer by 83% Contact length = 2 x (5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1) = 30 feet Contact length = (10 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1) = 55 feet
24
Tile Kiln (Counter flow?) Tile Exit Tile Entrance
25
Counter Flow Cooling Enables Cooling Tower Cross-flow cooling of extruded plastic uses 50 F water from chiller
26
4. Avoid Mixing Availability analysis… Useful work destroyed with mixing Examples –CAV/VAV air handlers –Separate hot and cold wells –Material reuse/recycling
27
HVAC Applications Cooling Energy UseHeating Energy Use
28
Cooling Applications Separate hot and cold water tanks
29
5. Match Source Energy to End Use
30
Match Source Energy to End Use
31
Utilize Current Daylighting Wright Brothers Factory, Dayton Ohio
32
Replace Colored / Fiberglass Windows with Corrugated Polycarbonate
33
Employ Skylighting Skylights: –Highest quality light –Reduce lighting energy costs –Increase heating/cooling costs
34
6. Whole System Whole Time Frame Design Design heuristic derived from natural evolution Nothing evolves in a vacuum, only as part of a system No optimum tree, fan, … Evolutionary perspective: ‘optimum’ synonymous with ‘perfectly integrated’ Optimize whole system, not components Design for whole time frame, next generation
35
Whole System “ Lean ” Manufacturing
36
Whole System Energy Engineering Optimum Pipe Diameter D opt = 200 mm when Tot Cost = NPV(Energy)+Pipe D opt = 250 mm when Cost= NPV(Energy)+Pipe+Pump Energy 250 = Energy 200 / 2
37
Whole System Accounting Budgeting and capital processes separate from operational processes Organizational structures within companies constrains optimum thinking Enlarge system boundary to include entire company
38
Whole-Time Frame Accounting “Efficiency Gap” “Numerous studies conclude 20% to 40% energy savings could be implemented cost effectively, but aren’t…..” Discrepancy between economic and actual savings potential called “efficiency gap”. Puzzled economists for decades: “I can’t believe they leave that much change lying on the table.”
