Energy Management
and Surveys
Initiating An Energy
Management Program
Designate an energy manager/energy
management team.
Energy managers must have support from top
management to get cooperation from the
maintenance and operating personnel.
Management must provide support for:
1. Funding to implement the most cost-
effective improvements
2. Collecting energy use and cost data
84
The Middle Part
Most effort goes to identifying and implementing
projects
- Hierarchy of projects
Low-risk projects
Major conservation projects before major
capital improvement projects

Energy Audits
Also called Energy Assessments
Vary from relatively simple, preliminary reviews
and analyses of utility data to detailed
calculations of energy and cost savings , and
detailed cost analyses of projects to implement.
ASH RAE published some of the early definitions
of audits, beginning with Level I, II , and III.
- Complete ASH RAE definitions can be found
in the Appendix
B 26
ASH RAE Level I Energy Audit
Walk-Through/Preliminary Analysis
Analysis of energy bills and brief survey of building.
- Bldg operator should accompany auditor
Identifies low cost/no cost measures
Other Definitions
Some AEE members use Type I, II, III
- Type I-Walk-through inspection to identify
maintenance, operational, or deficient equipment
issues and to also identify areas which need
further evaluation.
- Type II-Includes economic calculations and ~
may include monitoring/metering/testing to
identify actual energy consumption and losses.
- Type III-A Type II audit, plus computer
modeling of year-round energy consumption.
B - 30
Benchmarking Audit (AEE)
This audit includes performing an analysis of energy use
and accounting.
832
The Master Audit
This is a Type III energy audit which also
contains information such as code compliance,
maintenance schedule development, equipment
inventories, etc
8 -33
634
Determining which Audit
to choose
Depends on the funding available for the audit,
the cost and potential of the Energy
Conservation Opportunity, and the required
accuracy for the audit information .
B- 35
Analysis of Bills D
The audit must begin with a detailed analysis of
the energy bills for the previous 12 to 36 months.
This is important because :
,/ The bills show the proportionate use of each
different energy source when compared to the
total energy bill.
An examination of where energy is used can point
out previously unknown energy wastes.
The total amount spent on energy puts an upper
limit on the amount of money that can be saved .

Additional Energy Bill Analysis
A complete analysis of a facility's energy bills
requires a detailed knowledge of the rate structures in
effect for the facility.
To determine accurate costs of operating individual
pieces of equipment, separate energy bills into their
components.
- e.g. demand charge and energy charges for
the electric bill.
This breakdown also allows more accurate savings
calculations for Energy Management Opportunities
(EMOs) such as high-efficiency equipment,
rescheduling of some on-peak electrical uses, etc.

Building Energy Design
Doing Better than Required
ASHRAE Standards are based on minimum standards that
should routinely be life-cycle cost (LCC) effective; in most
cases, buildings can be designed much better and still be
LCC effective.
ASHRAE publishes Advanced Energy Design Guides (AEDG)
to provide specific recommendations for achieving 30%
energy savings over the minimum.
Use of the guides provides a prescriptive path to achieving
LEED v2.2 Energy and Atmosphere credits for New
Construction and Major Renovation projects.
AEDGs are available as free downloads at

Recent Developments
The stated goal of the ASHRAEjIE5 55 PC 90.1 for the 2010
standard was to reduce energy cost by 30% compared to the
2004 version; initial estimates project 23.4 energy cost
savings and 24.8% energy savings
- expanded scope to include receptacle and process loads (e.g., data
centers) and increased stringency of building envelope, lighting power
densities lowered and most equipment efficiencies higher

Using CO 2 as an indicator does not eliminate the need
for consideration of other contaminants.
Among these others are formaldehyde, combustion
byproducts, cleaning and maintenance compounds
(VOCs), ETS (Environmental Tobacco Smoke), aerosols,
emanations from food preparation and others.
Alone or in combinations, these compounds may give

Tax Deductions for
Commercial Buildings
This provision offers business taxpayers a deduction of
$1.80 per square foot for commercial buildings that
achieve a 50% reduction in annual energy cost to the
user, compared to a base building defined by the
industry standard ASHRAE/IESNA 90.1-2001.
Energy costs refer only to (1) lighting, (2) heating,
cooling, ventilation and hot water, and (3) building
envelope, since only these uses are within the scope of
the ASHRAE/IESNA standard and within the control of
the building designer.
Each of the three energy-using systems of the building is
eligible for one third ($0.60 per square foot) of the
incentive if it meets its share of the whole-buildi[ g m
savings goal. ~

Demand Response
Shedding or shifting demand load
- Load shedding-turn off to lower demand on
system for energy
Necessary loads will be reinstated on ad

May be tied to supplier or T&D needs
Unnecessary loads never reinstated
- Load shifting-regular turn off with firm plan
to reinstate when other loads are lower
Customer should be rewarded

Reliability Benefits
Demand Response is a resource to solve short-run
planning and reliability problems.
1 MW of Demand Response = 1 MW of Generation

The Energy Use Index is the ratio of the total Btu
used per year to the total number of square feet of
conditioned space.
A typical office building in the US has an EUI of
about 92,900 Btu/square foot/year.
Food service facilities in the US have the highest
average EUl's of over 258,000 Btu/square
foot/year.
Inpatient health care facilities are just under

Q(K>"
Energy Cost Index
The Energy Cost Index is sometimes used as a simpler
and more meaningful measure of energy efficiency.
The Energy Use Index is somewhat misleading
since all Btu are not really equal.
Electric energy is much higher quality energy than
oil or gas, and it costs about three times as much
per end use Btu.
F - 13
ECI Example
For the 100,000 square foot office building looked
at earlier, the cost of electricity is $123,200 per
year, and the cost of gas is $62,500 per year.
The ECI is then $ divided by
100,000 square feet, for an ECI of
$ jsquare footjyear.

Benchmarking Audits are associated rO\
with the idea that after the energy bill data
is collected and processed, some facility -~""""'"'
information will be collected on a walk-
through, and the data will be run through -"t:~:::'.:::!
some benchmark to determine if there is a 111
potential for significant improvement in energy
efficiency and reduction in energy operating cost.
Examples of existing benchmarking programs are
EPA's Portfolio Manager, LEED-EB, California Energy
Benchmarking, Chevron BM, ARCH, etc.
EPA/DOE Energy Star Portfolio
Manager Benchmarking Program
Free from the Energy Star website.
For many facilities, you can rate their energy performance on a scale
of 1- 100 relative to similar buildings nationwide.
Your building's peer group of comparison is those buildings in the
CBECS survey that have similar building and operating characteristics.
A rating of 50 indicates that the building, from an energy consumption
standpoint, performs better than 50% of all similar buildings
nationwide, while a rating of 75 indicates that the building performs
better than 75% of all similar buildings nationwide.
EPA's energy performance rating system accounts for the impact of
weather variations as well as changes in key physical and operating
characteristics of each building.

Demand Ratchet
Penalty for unusually high spike in demand
- Billed demand will never be less than X% of
the highest measured demand in the past N
months .
X varies from 50% to 100%
N can vary; 11 months is common
Example: Billed demand will be the maximum
of the current month's demand, or 75% of
the largest demand in the previous 11
months.

Blended Rates
Blended rates are the ratio of total cost to total
kWh consumption.
- For example the facility above has a blended energy
cost of ($23,503.50)/(150,000 kWh) = $0.1567/kWh.
Electrical energy saved during off-peak hours
- Use is not reduced when peak demand charges occur,
thus savings are energy-related and only
$0. 1242/kWh
An EMO that reduces peak demand would save
the company $9.18 per kW per month.
- Pure demand savings not captured by blended rates

Why Bother?
Version: 5/15/2013 3
- This change in the value of money over a given time period is called
the time value of money. Some have called this the most important
concept in economic analysis.
Financial Terms:
1. Annual value (A or AVl - a series of equal cash flows, most
often savings in our applications, that occur evenly spaced over
time. For this course we use end of year accounting, meaning that
cash flows occur only at end of year. A is also known as the
Annuity Amount. Also called annual worth (AW).
10. Salvage Value - the value of the eqUipment at the end of the
project life. Sometimes salvage value is positive (sell it) and
sometimes it is negative (pay to remove or dispose it). Salvage
value is usually ignored in this section, but if it does occur in a
problem, treat it as a future value.
11. Life of the project CN) - the number of years that we will receive
annual savings. This is what we use in our economic analysis.
Follow up note - some financial texts and universities use the term
worth instead of value. Recognize - the terms have the same meaning:
Present Worth (PW) = Present Value
Future Worth (FW) = Future Value
Net Present Worth (NPW) = Net Present Value
Annual Worth (AW) = Annual Value

Simplifying assumptions
1. Most problems involve an investment now (T =0) with
annual savings (cost) each and every year for the life of
the project.
2. The life of the project and the equipment life will be given
and they will usually be equal.
3. The cash flow frequency and the compounding periods
will match and will usually be annual.

Calculate the NPV for each:
NPV - PVsavingS - PVcost
NPV - annual savings x(PjA,I%,N) - Cost
NPV(O) =0 (The do nothing project)

Since the project life spans are different, we calculate the Annual Value of Each
Project using the formula below, and then compare the two AV's:
AV = A - P (AlP, I, N)
Projoct 1 AV =3000 -to,OOO(AlP, 15%, 5) = 3000 -10,000 (0.2983) = $1711'
Projoct 2 AV =4500 -15,000 (AlP, 15%, 8) = 4500 -15,000 (0.2229) = $1,156.5011'
Since Project 2'5 AV is > than Project l's, select project 2
1 2 3 4 5 19 N$100,000 = $30,000(X)
X =3.333
Now, search the different interest tables until
you find the I where (PIA, I, N) = 3.333:
I = IRR = 30% (almost)

Daily Review - In preparation for the
CEM Exam
Two VERY Important items - if you haven't done these two items, this review will
be less effective for you.
1. Get something to tab your workbook with like yellow stickies, etc.
2. Get a scientific calculator
For your help, each day's review is broken up into the two following topics. The
review should take between 90 to 120 minutes:
1. Quick review - this highlights the main topics covered each day
2. Your activities for tonight will include:
v' Finding, understanding, and tabbing - this review should be closely
paired with the study guide which contains the objectives for the
course. If you can find all of the items in the study guide and the
items that were covered today either in the material, notes, or other
resources, you stand a much better chance of being more
successful on the CEM Exam.
v' Other helpful tips for the exam or material (depending on the day).
v' Practice Problems - while all exam questions are multiple choice,
these practice problems will either be fill in the blank, true false, or
calculate a specific answer. The answer key to each section is
included at the end. For your benefit - DO NOT DO these problems
one at a time, do all of them as if you were taking the exam, then
check your answers and correct where necessary.
v' And as always - if you have questions - see your Instructor
immediately (DO NOT wait until Thursday or Friday morning to get
help - get it early when you need it !!!!!!!!)

Example of Demand Control Savings
A production facility has four large machines with a demand
of 200 kW each. The machines could be controlled by a
computer which would limit the total demand to 400 kW at
anyone time. This company limits the use of the machines
by operational policy which states that no more than two
machines should be turned on at any given time. This room
is separately metered from the rest of the facility.

Ratchet Penalty
Some utility rate structures include a demand ratchet. For
example, for a 70% ratchet, there would be a minimum demand
assessed for the next 11 months of 70% of the highest demand in
the previous 11 months, regardless of actual metered demand.
(0.70 x 800 kW) - 400 kW = 160 kW
This would increase the cost of the mistake as follows:
Ratchet cost increase = 11 mo x $7.02/kWmo x 160 kW
=
$12,355.20
Total cost of mistake = $2808 + $8.60 + $12,355.20
= $15,171.80

Power Quality
Power Quality is related to how well a
bus voltage-usually our facility load
bus voltage-maintains a pure sinusoidal
rated voltage and frequency.
PQ issues involve all momentary phenomena including
spikes, notches and outages; as well as harmonics and
power factor.
Modern electroniC equipment both causes and is
affected by the problem.
Power Quality is becoming one of the most important
issues in energy management today.

Importance of Grounding
Up to 80 percent of PQ problems in
today may be caused by wiring and grounding
systems that met the NEe at the time, but do
not meet the needs of today's sensitive
electronic equipment.
The first step taken to deal with PQ problems
should be to inspect the wiring and grounding,
and clean and tighten all connections. Loose
connections come from vibration, oxidation,
corrosion, and age.
Elecmc Systems K - 17
Grounding (continued)
In a typical delta-wye main load center for a facility, the
supply system ground, the neutral connection of the
wye, and the equipment ground must all be bonded
together in that enclosure.
Each piece of equipment should be fed separately, and
with a ground that directly returns to the single ground
point at the load center (Frame steel grounds are not
acceptable for good PQ systems). This eliminates ground
loops. Note that ground leads must be run in the same
cable or raceway as the power leads

Electric Systems K * 19
Upgrade Neutrals
Many neutrals were not designed to carry any significant
amount of current, and are simply too small.
Unbalanced loads, harmonics, and especially triplen
harmonies cause neutral current to increase-can be up to
1.73 to 3.0 times the phase current.
Add neutrals-run a separate neutral for each single phase
load.
Oversize the neutral, or run parallel neutrals to several large
loads.

Conversely, scotopic vision is how the eye perceives objects and colors unde
low-light condilions, such as a parking lot at night. The above measurements

Why Bother?
Electric motors use "upwards of 60%" of
all U.S. electricity and 45% globally*
Motor driven systems use over 70%
electric energy for many plants
A heavily used motor can cost 10 times its
first cost to run one year
On an average LCC basis, energy is about
95% of total cost of a motor

Electric Motor Management
Why So Difficult?
Load on most driven systems is unknown at
least on retrofits
Very difficult to determine load accurately
through measurements
Electric motor management is FULL of
surprises
Yet, savings can be large (small percentage
of a big number is a big number)
Important note: Often oversized wiring
(above code) is cost effective in heavily used
systems as it reduces FR losses. (CDA and

Types of Motors
DC Motors (older and/or large DC motors)
- Good for precise speed control and strong torque
properties
- Not efficient, (historically) high maintenance, and
higher down time (commutator and brushes need
inspection and maintenance)
- Newer brush less motors much better
- Less than 5% of the motors today are DC
- Replacing with a VFD driven AC motor may be cost

Voltage Imbalance
Problems can occur because of voltage
imbalance between the three phases. This
can be a serious problem in motors.
Percent voltage imbalance is found as the
ratio of the largest phase voltage
difference from average, divided by the
average voltage.
For example, if we have 220, 215 and 210
volts, the voltage imbalance is Maximum
Deviation/Avg. Voltage.
5/215 = .023, orM~J1R~rcent.

Leave existing motors alone until they fail except:
- Exceptionally oversized motors (25% loading
or so)
- Sizes that are needed elsewhere (requires
inventory)
When they fail, maybe buy new energy efficient
motors (EPACT or Premium) instead of paying for
rewind (much more on this later)
If financial incentives are available, much more
may be done
Premium efficient motors need economic help in
much of the country (PUC, Utility, motor mfgs.)

Motor Rewinds Cont.
Rewinds can be done well. Use DoE
rewind specifications, inspect shop, and
periodically request tests. However, 1%
still seems valid
Why does efficiency drop?
- Oven temperature of burnout and cure
is critical
- Reassembly can cause more acute
problems Motors M1 - 31 C\Cr(f'.
Proposed Motor Rewind
Policy
If motor is NEMA Premium, go ahead and
rewind.
If failed ODP motor is not Energy Efficient, scrap
for copper and buy a new Premium motor.
If failed TEFC motor is not Energy Efficient,
scrap for copper and buy a new Premium motor
unless motor is larger than about 75 HP. Then,
rewind.
If rewind, use a good shop, use DoE
specifications ana periodically inspect
See reference, Horse Power, a DoE publication.

for new purchases
Energy efficient motors as an alternative to
rewinds is almost always cost effective (2000+
hrs) for all except large TEFCs (see earlier

Motors Ml - 41
Single Phasing Cont.
Each 100 C rise in temp. reduces motor life 50%
In single phasing, only one phase pairing
remains, leading to large amperage increases
and HEAT
NEC 430.36 states that if fused, all 3 phases
should be fused. Similar statements for thermal
overload devices
Further, these overload protections should be
sized on "actual loads" rather than name plate
(i.e. devices will trip more quickly)
Phase current increases by sq.rt.3 in single
phasing (remember the temp. increase rule)

Gas-Engine Driven Chillers
Significant electric demand savings
Good part-load performance
Heat recovery from engine (CHP) likely needed to
be cost-effective
Most applications in areas with high demand
rates and low or moderate gas rates
Available from manufacturers
Some manufacturers have dual-drive (gas and
electric) available
HVAC -41
HRU - DeSuperheater
Recover heat from the 1V200 OF hot refrigerant
gas exiting the compressor.
Cold water (50-70 OF) can be heated to 140 to
160 OF.

Boiler MACT
Initially issued 2004 by EPA
"Final" rules issued March 2011 and
immediately stayed by EPA
Amendments issued December 2011
Conservationists, industry, and courts
have been involved in controversy
Rules possibly effective soon with
compliance required about 2016?
9
Boiler MACT
An array of fuel types, boiler and process
heater sizes, emission standards and rules
has been on the table.
- Planning (by industry, commerce, and
institutions) has been based on rules in flux
- Planning must continue-some
organizations will spend millions and have
trouble meeting the deadline
10
Boiler MACT
Larger (> 10 MMBtu) units burning coal or
biomass likely will see greatest change
-Controlled pollutants: HCI, Hg, PM or TSM
(total s.elective metal) and CO?
-Annual testing and tune up, monitoring,
record keeping and reporting?
- Facility energy assessment?
- Sometimes expensive control equipment
11
Boiler MACT
Generally, smaller 10 MMBtu/hr?) units
burning natural gas or refinery gas will see
least effect
- Tune up at least every 2 years or 5
years?
- Facility energy assessment?

3. Stack gas temperature~ -? yNI
4. Heat exchange within the boiler-related

First three are most important
16
Boiler Fuels
Most boilers burn natural gas
Natural gas after processing is about 96%
methane gas, CH 4, (simplest hydrocarbon)
Know price point (point of use cost) for
switching if that is an alternative
17
Boiler Fuels
Other boiler fuels
-#2 fuel oil (similar to diesel)
- #6 fuel oil (thick, viscous liquid, may
require heat to move in winter)
-Coal
-By-product gas (e.g., refinery gas)
-Waste fuel (e.g., wood waste, rice hulls,
msw)
18
Combustion Efficiency
In any closed combustion system such as a
boiler or a furnace without secondary air,
combustion efficiency is determined by
exhaust gas measurements
The goal is to be able to carefully control
the fuel and airflow to ensure complete and
efficient combustion.
Excess air is important and too much
excess air is expensive.

Excess Air
Promotes complete mixing in the burner
Avoids excessive CO formation (major
safety issue)
Adds N2 which carries heat out the stack
Control is based on O2 measured in stack
-Automatically (02 trim) or manually
adjust air/fuel ratio with cams, linkages,
etc on front of boiler
22
Combustion Nomograms
Graphically show effects of
-Fuel type
- Too much excess air
- High stack temperature
Also give combustion efficiency and CO 2
(Modern electronic flue gas analyzers
typically have the nomogram information
in memory and display efficiency directly)

Boiler Pressure
Common pressure gages read the amount
of pressure above local atmospheric
pressure (denoted as psig)
To get absolute pressure from an ordinary
gage, add the local pressure (usually 14.7)
Charts and tables we need are in psia, but
gages read psig.
- Thus we must convert.
35
Boiler Pressure
~. Ppsia=Ppsig+14.7 or rounding off,
PpSia=P psig + 15
An office building boiler's pressure gage
reads 12 psi. What is the absolute
pressure?
An industrial boiler operates at 595 pSi.
What is the absolute pressure?

Why Steam?
163,000 commercial and industrial steam
boilers
Boiler fuel costs are significant
Many energy conservation opportunities
Steam is an excellent source of constant
temperature heat (made from water that is
- Non-toxic and easy to handle
- Widely available and inexpensive)

Water Basics
1 Btu raises the temperature of 1 pound
of liquid water 1 of
1 Btu/lboF is "heat capacity" or "specific
heat"
Reference energy (called enthalpy "h" or
a
"H'') for water is at 32 OF

Steam Generation Basics
Latent heat refers to energy needed to
boil (or condense or freeze or thaw)
- Latent heat changes are at constant
temperature
At 1 atm pressure, water boils at 212 of
-A latent heat change
- 970 Btu are needed to change 1 Ib of
liquid water to steam at 212 OF

Steam Generation Basics
Water can be liquid at higher pressures
than 14.7 psia.
- Vaporization occurs at higher temp
Most boilers of interest are "saturated"
steam boilers-meaning no heat is added
to the steam after the water vaporizes
For these boilers Saturated Steam Tables
give all the necessary information

Superheated Steam
When saturated steam is heated, its
temperature will rise and it is called
superheated steam.
This steam is called superheated, or dry

Superheated Steam Example
Consider installing a turbine to reduce the T and P
of superheated steam from 1200F and 200 psia
to 700F and 180 psia, and generate some
electrical energy.
Solution

a) dh = h200 - h180 = 1635.4 Btu/lb - 1375.3 Btu/lb
= 260.1 Btu/lb

Steam Traps
Condensing steam gives up its energy at
constant temperature and the liquid
condensate must be removed.
Three purposes of steam traps
1. Remove liquid condensate
2. Remove non-condensible gases such as
air
3. Hold back live steam

Steam Traps
Prone to failure, they are a major source
of steam leaks
Routine trap diagnostic and maintenance
program is highly valuable
Call vendor or manufacturer for orifice size
needed for leak rate
Other types include float, thermostatic,
and venturi traps
Normally not insulated
56
Boiler Blowdown
Water, not steam, is removed
Top or surface blowdown
- Removes impurities
- Controls concentration ofTDS (Total Dissolved Solids)
- Usually continuous and low flowrate
- POSSible source of heat for makeup water or flash steam
Bottom or mud blowdown
- Removes sediment settled on bottom of boiler
- Usually intermittent and brief with high flowrate

Flash Steam Recovery
Flash steam occurs by lowering the
pressure on hot, liquid condensate
The liquid water hastoo much energy (is
too hot) and loses energy to the
appropriate temp by evaporation.
Resulting flash steam may be used for
- Deaerators
- Process needs

Flash Steam Recovery
Removing heat from the blowdown may
be necessary to meet sewer requirements
After flashing the steam, the remaining
liquid can be cooled by heating make-up
water
The amount of steam produced is given
by
Frae t IOn Flash ed = H f (high pressure) - H f (low pressure)
Hfg(low pressure)
62
Fraet IOn Flashed = H f (120psia) - H f (50psia)
H fg (50 psia)
% Flashed = 312.6-250.2 =0.068 or 6.8%
923.9
Mass lost = (0.068)(1000 Lb/h) = 68 Lb/h
63
Condensate Disposition
Reusing condensate saves
1. Energy
2. Water
3. Water treatment
4. Sewer charges
64
Condensate Recovery
Atmospheric pressure recovery
- Most common system
- Limited to 212 of
- Less expensive than pressurized system
High pressure recovery
- Requires pressurized system
- Recovers hotter water with more Btu's I
~
65
When is Condensate Recovery
Not Cost Effective?
Recovery is over considerable distance in
an existing system
Condensate is contaminated

Compressed Air Systems
and Pump Systems
Why Bother?
Industry uses most compressed air (CA)
- Larger compressors
- More end uses
- More complex systems
-Savings potential up to 30% often quoted
Commercial/Institutional buildings
- Smaller compressors for pneumatic
controls
2
Typical Commercial Building
System
Reciprocating compressor
<15 hp
Located in mechanical room
Pressures typically 15 to 25 psig
Very small flow rate of air 1 cfm)
On-off control
Spends most time "off"
Very little savings opportunity

......
Compressed Air Systems
Supply side
-Operates within a specified pressure range.
- Delivers an air flow rate which varies with
demand
Flow rate measured two ways
- SCFM at 68 OF and atmospheric pressure
-ACFM at actual intake temperature and
pressure
5
SUPPLY SIDE
6
Typical Industrial System
Screw compressor
100 hp or more
Pressure range 110 to 130 psig
Large air flowrates
Sometimes called the "fourth utility"
Sometimes the most expensive utility cost
Industrial Compressors
The vast majority of industrial compressors
are rotary screw package units
-5 to 500 hp
-0.16 to 0.22 kW/scfm
- Up to 2,500 scfm
8
Industrial Compressors
Reciprocating compressors
older design
<1 hp to 1,000's of hp (smaller units
used in commercial bldgs)
Centrifugal compressors
125 to 5,000 hp
Both capable of high flowrates
(> 100,000 cfm) and pressures
(> 10,000 psi) 9
10
Other Supply Side Equipment
Receivers: storage devices to
smooth demand on compressor
- Can significantly reduce demand
fluctuation on compressor controls
- 2 to 4 gallons per scfm (varies a
great deal)
- Located before dryer (wet), after
dryer (dry), throughout plant, and
at large loads
11
13
Example:
100 hp compressor@ 8 cents/kWh
Annual energy cost: $63,232 (assume cant. oper.)
One in-line coalescing filter w/ 6 psi pressure drop
(Assume 2 psi drop when filter is new) possible ......
I. Savings
4 psi drop costs 2% of annual energy, or $1265
A new element for this filter is $375
14
Compressed Air Uses
Primary use is to power pneumatic tools.
- Smaller, lighter and more maneuverable.
- Variable speed and torque control
- Safer compared to electrical devices
Other uses include
o Packaging o Filtration
o Conveyors o Controls Systems
o Dehydration o Aeration
o Refrigeration

Artificial Demand: The More-is-
Better Philosophy
Answer: Supplying 20 extra psig will force the
system to consume 20% more air flo~ resulting
in 20% waste
Artificial Demand is the difference between system
air flow at optimum operating pressure and the
flow consumed at the actuarpressure applied to
the system
Any unregulated air demand will add to artificial
demand as system pressure is increased above
the minimum pressure to ensure proper
functioning

Control of Multiple Compressors
Cascading set pOints (old technology)
- Stop or start compressors to meet demand
- Individual compressor ranges added, leading
to large overall range
Use a remote (not in compressors) PID control
loop to dispatch multiple compressors
- Dramatically reduces control differential and
smoothes operation
- Can be extremely cost effective
25
26
Inappropriate/Poor Use
Condensate drains stuck open
Blowing: drying or cooling parts, personal use
Sparging: Aerating or agitating liquid
Dilute Phase Transport: transporting solid, such as
powders in a diluted format
Open Hand-held Blowguns or Lances
Vacuum Venturis: shop vacuums, drum pumps
See appendix for ways to determine inappropriate
use
27
j
Other Demand Side Issues
Distribution lines: get air where needed
and provide further storage
- Large lines are good for systems
operating full time (often 4 inch)
- All lines should be "looped" so air comes
at any need from two directions
Traps and drains: traps and drains located
throughout system to remove moisture.
Can be a large source of air leaks.

A Few Energy Savings Ideas
Engineered Air Nozzles
Use 33% less compressed air for
same blowing capacity, compared
to round orifices
Heat Recovery - 85-90% of compressor input
energy is lost as heat, even for an ideal compressor. Fully
loaded 100 hp compressor generates 250,000 Btu/hr, like
39 1,500 watt electric space heaters (although not high
temp).

Pumping Systems
Big energy consumers in most
manufacturing plants, commercial facilities
and other large buildings.
Often oversized and not managed well.
Hydraulic Institute estimates that 20% of
the cost of existing pumping systems can
be saved through good engineering
analysis.
This section explores how to obtain those
savings. 36 Icrrcrl

Throttling
- restricting the outlet flow of a pump
- commonly done by partially closing a valve
- like controlling speed with foot on brake at
constant accelerator position
Bypassing
- install piping circuit to divert part of the outlet
- diverted flow is commonly put back into inlet
40
Pumps
Most pumps have two common features
- Driven with electric motor
-Centrifugal
Major energy conservation possibilities

Building Envelope
What is a building
envelope?
Separates building interior from exterior
environment. Generally includes:
- Exterior and interior walls, and ceilings
-Roofs
- Foundation
- Fenestration (openings or what fills
openings)
Doors, windows, vents, etc.
- Insulation 2
Why bother?
Envelope condition affects
- HVAC equipment operation cost
- Occupants' sense of well-being
Difficult problem for retrofits
- The existing system usually "works"
- Changes are expensive
Highly important for new construction
- Energy manager should be on new building
design team! I"'=~~

Thermally light - A building whose heating and
cooling requirements are proportional to the
weather driven outside temperatures, e.g.,
homes, shopping centers, and commercial office
buildings
Thermally heavy - A building whose indoor
temperature remains fairly constant in the face
of significant changes in the outdoor
temperature, e.g., plastic injection molding
facility or building with a high heat generating
device or area inside.

Topping Cycle
Fuel energy first produces mechanical energy
and residual thermal energy is used.
- Diesel or gas turbine engine turns a shaft
to supply mechanical energy to a
generator producing electric power.
- Waste heat recovered from the exhaust
gas and engine coolant (diesel) produces
useful hot water or steam.

Bottoming Cycle
Primary energy first satisfies a thermal
demand, such as process heating and
residual thermal energy is recovered and
used to produce useful mechanical or

a process and the reduced pressure
steam then goes to a turbine to supply
mechanical power.

Combined Cycle
Useful mechanical energy is produced at two different
stages. Residual thermal energy is utilized at least once.
Example:
- A gas turbine produces shaft power to power a generator
(a topping cycle). The exhaust gas (perhaps with
supplemental firing) is used in a waste heat recovery
boiler to develop steam to power a steam turbine.
- Shaft power from the turbine is used to power a
generator (normally a topping cycle but used here as ci
bottoming cycle).
- Steam from the turbine provides useful heat energy to a
process (the useful thermal energy makes this CHP).

Net Metering
In general, the utility bills you for the "net"
energy consumed.
This means that excess electricity generated is
valued at the retail price, provided you are a net
consumer of electricity (not a net generator).
Any excess energy you generate goes into the
electric grid and creates a "credit" for future
energy consumed.
"Net" may be defined as a billing period
(monthly) or annually, depending on the utility.

U-2
What Do These Have
in Common?
Answer:
- Annual dollar savings
- No capital equipment to purchase
- Just attention to what is going on in your or your
customer's facility and funding to correct these types of
problems
- In other words, a good maintenance program
U-3 ~
Maintenance Management -
"The Stealth ECO"
Energy and dollar savings from a good maintenance
management program can rival those from more well known
ECOs such as efficient lighting, energy efficient motors, etc.
Problem - We learn to live with maintenance issues and they
often go below our energy management antenna scan
- A hissing air leak that we hear everyday,
- Or an air leak we don't know about
- A broken actuator - damper linkage
- That water puddle below a steam pipe flange fitting
Problem - We wait until there is a breakdown before we do
something
Solution - Treat maintenance as an integral part of a strong
energy management program .
U-4
What Does It Take?
<~. Management commitment
- To hire the right people
- To fund preventive maintenance (PM) v. corrective
maintenance (CM)
Preventive maintenance will not eliminate equipment
failures - but it will help avoid catastrophic failures and
reduce corrective maintenance
PM allows the firm to control its maintenance rather than
have it control the firm .
PM includes following manufacturer maintenance schedules,
fixing that leaking steam gasket now, before it completely
fails, and dealing with maintenance issues sooner rather
than later.
Proper training
Good record-keeping

Failed Steam Trap Example
1. Five bucket steam traps are stuck open in your
facility. They all exhaust to the drain. If gas
costs $7.00/MCF (M=1000) and your steam
system is 78% efficient, what is the cost of these
malfunctioning steam traps per year? Each trap
has a 1/8 inch orifice. The steam line pressure is
110 psia. The steam line is energized 8760 hfY.

Produces images of heat usually
invisible to the human eye
Heat in some mechanical situations
can be a sign of impending malfunctions
Heat in some electrical wiring can be a sign of bad
connections and/or phase problems
Heat anomalies in steam systems (e.g. traps, worn-
out/missing insulation)
Heat loss through building envelope
U -18
Infrared Photography
Cont.
Averted problems can be significant in nature
(e.g. Primary transformer fires, etc.)
IR operator needs some level of expertise
- Attend training
- Contract service
One major malfunction discovered and infrared
program just paid for itself

Another powerful member of the family of
non-destructive testing techniques
Measures vibration signatures of machinery
(usually rotating)
Two Main Diagnostic Methods
1. Vibration Signatures (Snap-Shot)
2. Trending (Observation Over Time)

Vibration Analysis Cont.
o Even more so than infrared photography,
training is mandatory (this is a science andan
. art)
o Trending vibration levels over time can remove
some of the uncertainty of problems
o Technique used to spot:

Lubricant Analysis
Lubricants (e.g., oil) can be analyzed for wear and
tear on process bearings, gears, etc.
Draw a sample of lubricant, send it in to a testing
firm for analysis and receive a report regarding
machine wear, particle analysis, potential failure
information. Start analysis program early in
equipment life and develop trend data.
Company can then make decisions about equipment
performance, planned parts replacement, etc.
Allows company to "see into the future" to avoid
catastrophic failures and use PM rather than CM to
management equipment.

Discussion
Why do inefficient buildings often use higher
technology than more efficient buildings?
U -36
Commissioning
The process of ensuring that systems are designed,
installed, functionally tested, and capable of being
operated and maintained to perform in conformity
with the design intent ....
begins with planning and includes design,
construction, start-up, acceptance and training, and
can be applied throughout the life of the building
Benefits of Commissioning
Recommissioning
(May see it called Retro-
commissioning)
The process of periodically repeating
commissioning activities as needed when
building are modified, additions are made and/or
significant time has passed.
U -41
Real Time Commissioning
U-42
Seasonal Commissioning
Seasonal commissioning involves commissioning
activities that occur seasonally, such as pre-
winter and pre-summer checks and verification
of HVAC equipment.
We see this in our personal lives when we hear
commercials that encourage us to "get ready
for winter" by having a pre-winter service
check-up on our HVAC equipment

Introduction
We have discussed a number of energy systems:
- HVAC, Lighting, motors, building envelope
We have also discussed ways to improve the
efficiency of these systems:
- More efficient chillers
- Variable air volume distribution systems
- Energy efficient lighting
-. Energy efficient motors
What is needed is a means to make all of these
systems work together most efficiently:

Loop Definitions
Stability Stable if process doesn't show continuing trend away
from setpoint or continuous oscillation following an
upset in either load or setpoint
Response Time required for PV (Process Variable) to reach SP
Time (Set Point) following a step change in mode or setpoint
Overshoot The amount the PV goes beyond the SP following a
change in load or setpoint
Offset The amount of constant error existing between PV
and SP once the process reaches steady state
Settling Time Time required for process to reach steady state
following a change in load or setpoint
Steady State Condition that exists in closed loop system when the
control variable (CV) equals a constant value and no
oscillation occurs

Background Information
Many complex computer programs (e.g.,
building load calculation programs) have
features such as
- Many lines of code (possibly many
pages to printout)
- Copyright issues
Reputation of both the software and user
are highly important
- Get references if you do not know

Report Features
What should a report contain regarding an
expensive project based on such a program?
- Input and output for recommended project
Screen prints or reports produced by the
program
Energy and cost savings data
- Possibly similar information for other
scenarios not being recommended

Utility Accounting Features
Benchmark and assist conservation
efforts
-Eel's and EUl's; compare facilities
-Normalize for weather, occupancy,
production
-Track projects, carbon footprint
Utility Accounting
Spreadsheets-useful for small number of
accounts
Many accounts-use on-line or enterprise
software
Commercial examples
-EnergyCAP
- Energy Watchdog Pro
-Metrix

Benchmarking
Benchmarking compares facility energy
use to similar circumstances
-Compares energy use for a single
meter, building or facility to baseline
- Compares facility energy use to a set of
similar facilities
Measures effectiveness of energy
management projects and programs
EUI's and ECI's are important benchmarks
Benchmarking Software
EPA's Portfolio Manager
- Mainly commercial and institutional buildings,
industry being added
- Based on DOE's EIA CBECS (Commercial
Building Energy Consumption Survey)
- Free, online
- Includes water and carbon
- Covered in Sec N, Green Buildings
