Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2015 16:26:35 -0800 Subject: arbcombo -- ARB Research Seminar: How Air Movement Makes Comfort Energy-Efficient From: tclarksj@arb.ca.gov “How Air Movement Makes Comfort Energy-Efficient”. Edward Arens, Ph.D., and Hui Zhang, Ph.D. University of California, Berkeley Tuesday, March 24, 2015 1:00 pm, PDT (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California Air movement can cool a person indoors in a similar manner as lowering the temperature, but needs only a tiny fraction of the energy. New fans of 1-8 watts producing 0.6 to 1 m/s (1.5 to 2 mph) air movement near each of a building's occupants can offset a 6ºF (3K) increase in indoor air temperature, while actually improving the occupant's comfort and perceived air quality. Increasing the indoor temperature reduces a building's total HVAC (heating, ventilating, and air conditioning) energy about 5% per degree F, or 10% per degree C, and even more in climate zones where the indoor temperature allows natural ventilation or evaporative cooling systems to be used instead of compressor-based cooling. Across US climates, air movement permits year-round HVAC energy reductions averaging 1000 watts per occupant. The energy reductions possible from improved fan use exceeds that of many other current technological improvement to buildings. The opportunities for new design approaches and new fan products are considerable.

Donald Dabdub, Ph.D. University of California, Irvine Tuesday, March 17, 2015 1:30 pm, PDT (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California Biomass contributes more than 5,700 Gigawatt-hour to California’s in-state renewable power, approximately 19% of in-state renewable power, and 2% of full California power mix. Current operating biopower capacity is about 900 Megawatt (MW), including approximately 550 MW of woody biomass solid fuel combustion, 280 MW of landfill gas-to-energy and 75 MW from wastewater treatment biogas. It is estimated that there is sufficient in-state ‘technically’ recoverable biomass to support another 2,800 MW of capacity or 21 Terawatt-hour of electricity. While most biomass energy is derived from woody material (including urban wood waste, and forest product and agricultural residues), there is a growing interest in using municipal solid waste, food processing waste, animal manure, and wastewater (co-digestion at wastewater treatment facilities) to generate electricity and renewable fuels. Increasing production of bioenergy contributes to energy sustainability while reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and also could help reduce criteria pollutant emissions.
