RESEARCH, continued …. Research Grants continued …

The Effect of Personal Control and Thermal Variability on Comfort and Acceptability, Principal Investigator, 2000-2004. Primary funding from American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, $ 142,000. Co-funded by Center for the Built Environment, $30,000.

The objective of this recently completed project was to conduct a series of field studies to determine how personal control of operable windows in office settings affects workers’ thermal comfort and their acceptance of variable thermal environments. Newly developed methods included the design and fabrication of an Indoor Climate Monitor (ICM) that collected continuous measurements of each subject’s workstation microclimate, plus a web-based survey, which subjects took several times a day, and was cross-linked to concurrent physical assessments of workstation microclimatic conditions.

Case Studies of Mixed-Mode Office Buildings, Principal Investigator, May 1, 2004-April 30, 2005. Center for the Built Environment, UC Berkeley. $15,000

This project developed a web-based library of case studies of mixed-mode buildings, covering a range of climates, design approaches, and control strategies. The goal of the work is to provide detailed precedents that designers and building owners can learn from and point to as examples, to help the building industry develop a better understanding of how naturally ventilated and mixed-mode buildings work in practice, and how to overcome barriers to implementation.

Control Strategies for Mixed-Mode Buildings, Principal Investigator, May 1, 2006-April 30, 2007. Center for the Built Environment, UC Berkeley. $15,000

The goal of this project was to document examples of control algorithms for the operation of buildings that integrate both operable windows and various mechanical cooling systems. The focus will be on mixed mode buildings which use a combination of manual and automatic control of windows, where the Building Energy Management System is operating the windows in response to various indicators of both indoor and/or outdoor environmental conditions. By documenting the range of protocols that have been used, engineers can familiarize themselves with the varied palette of design & control opportunities so they can select the one that best fits the needs of the building, client, occupants, and budget.

Evaluation of Façade Performance on Occupant Comfort and Energy, Principal Investigator, May 1, 2007-April 30, 2008. Center for the Built Environment, UC Berkeley. $25,000

The goals of this research area were to: (1) identify trends in occupant satisfaction in perimeter zones, (2) create evaluation methods and criteria to asses the effect of building facades on occupants, (3) implement the evaluation methods on a number of conventional and high-performance facades, and (4) provide guidance to building designers for improving façade performance. The first year of this project focused on goals 1) and 2).

Low energy cooling for California climates: Climatic feasibility and energy savings potential of mixed-mode commercial buildings, Co-Principal Investigator, June 1, 2007-Sept 30, 2008. California Energy Commission, Building Energy Research Grant (BERG) Program. $150,000

Co-Principal Investigator with Phil Haves, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. This project evaluated selected mixed mode buildings in California and then uses the EnergyPlus simulation program to quantify the energy savings potential of different natural ventilation and mixed-mode operational strategies with radiant cooling across California’s 16 climate zones. A major contribution was in developing new computational methods for simulating mixed-mode buildings and their controls, and in examining the relative performance of various comfort exceedance metrics.

RESEARCH, continued …. Center for the Built Environment, National Science Foundation, Industry / University

Collaborative Research Center, Associate Director (1995-present), Acting Director (2000-2001). Variable funding of $500-700k / year.

Administrative role in collaboration with Director Ed Arens. Although CBE officially became established in May 1997, it was at least a 2-year effort in its development. CBE’s mission is to improve the design and operation of buildings to assure high performance and quality for their occupants and owners. It is a research collaboration between UC Berkeley and its contributing Industry Partners. Our work emphasizes evaluating and improving building environmental quality, testing new technologies for increasing workplace productivity, and reducing the energy used by buildings and their environmental control systems.

Informational Controls in Mixed-Mode Buildings, Principal Investigator, April 2009 – December 2010. Center for the Built Environment, UC Berkeley. $38,000

The objective of this study is to identify key issues associated with signaling devices (red/green lights) that indicate when occupants should open and close windows, and how these are integrated with the mechanical systems and controls. Specific goals include: 1) Using surveys, collect feedback from occupants about how people perceive and use the devices, 2) Based on interviews, site visits and system specifications, compare existing systems in terms of initial intent, control sequences, and the use of other forms of occupant education

Energy Retrofits in K-12 School Buildings, Principal Investigator, April 2010 – April 2011. Center for the Built Environment, UC Berkeley. $30,000

This project is assessing whether the retrofits completed as a part of 2003 and 2006 bond measures led to cost and energy savings for San Francisco Unified School District. Based on interviews, documentation from renovations, and utility data, we are looking at how decisions were made during modernization efforts, and whether changes improved both energy performance and the quality of the educational environment.

Stochastic Control Optimization of Mixed-Mode Buildings for U.S Climates, Co-Principal Investigator, April 2010 – March 2013. American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers. $300,000 (total), $50,000 (UC Berkeley)

This project will identify MM buildings in the U.S. for study and field-based implementation and testing of the new systems; examine and characterize occupant behavior patterns most likely to influence the MM control scheme; develop predictive control optimization strategies that account for these process, and test them in buildings together with before- and after-implementation occupant surveys and energy performance evaluations. The bulk of this project is being done by a team headed by Prof. Gregor Henze of the University of Colorado-Boulder, and in collaboration with myself, and the Technical University of Dresden, Germany.

Thermal Comfort Criteria for the Renovation of Kuykendall Hall, Sub-contractor, February – December, 2011. Commercial Building Partnership Program: University of Hawaii-Manoa, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. $30,000

This was a sub-contract to an LBNL project that was providing R&D assistance to the renovation of Kuykendall Hall at the University of Hawaii-Manoa. Our task was to provide technical assistance on the impact of operable windows on indoor environmental quality, and appropriate thermal comfort criteria for a naturally ventilated or mixed-mode environment in a tropical climate for both a classroom and office condition.

RESEARCH, continued …. Adaptive Comfort Assessment for Mixed-Mode Buildings and Personal Control, Principal

Investigator, April 2011 – March 2013. Center for the Built Environment, UC Berkeley. $25,000

This project is a scoping study to develop and test methods to establish an adaptive comfort standard for mixed-mode buildings, as well as contexts with other means of personal control, such as fans. The objectives include: (1) develop a standard set of “building characteristic / adaptive opportunity” information that should be collected; (2) expand the standard existing protocols for field-based studies of thermal comfort to include information unique to the operating characteristics of mixed-mode buildings and personal control devices, and that might help tease apart the various factors that contribute to overall adaptive opportunity; and (3) conduct a pilot test of the new methods in 1-2 buildings to finalize the recommended procedures.

Use of Simulation Tools for Designing Mixed-Mode and Naturally Ventilated Buildings, Principal Investigator, April 2013 – March 2014. Center for the Built Environment, UC Berkeley. $10,000

This project seeks to understand the following questions. How are mixed mode buildings being modeled in practice? What assumptions and inputs are being used (e.g. control strategies, occupant use of windows, distribution of thermal mass)? Are these assumptions made because of limitations of the tools, or because their full capabilities are not used? Do practitioners and researchers use the tools differently? What are the weak links? How could these tools be improved to ease and advance the design of NV/MM buildings?

U.S.-India Joint Center for Building Energy Research and Development (CBERD), Principal Investigator, 2012-2017. U.S.-India Joint Clean Energy Research and Development Center $375,000

This project is led by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory from the U.S. and CEPT University from India, and is a collaboration among many R&D organizations and industry partners from both countries. The overall objective of CBERD is to build a solid foundation of technologies research and development, knowledge, work force development, and collaboration to position both the U.S. and India toward a future of clean energy economy and high performance energy efficient buildings. The project is structured around: 1) Building Information Technology Systems (simulation and modeling, monitoring and benchmarking, and controls and communication integration technologies); 2) Building Physical Systems (advanced envelope and passive design, HVAC and lighting technologies, and occupant / thermal comfort); and 3) Supplemental Applications (smart grid responsiveness, renewable integration, and cost-optimization). I am the lead researcher for tasks related to envelope and passive design technologies, and occupant and thermal comfort.
