Estimating real-time infiltration for use in residential ventilation control

September 19, 2019
Author(s)
Lisa C. Ng, Stephen M. Zimmerman, Jeremy Good, Brian Toll, Steven J. Emmerich, Andrew K. Persily
Minimum outdoor air ventilation rates specified in standards such as ASHRAE Standard 62.2 are generally based on envelope airtightness, building floor area, geographical location, and number of occupants. ASHRAE Standard 62.2 allows for a constant

Blown away: Citicorp Center Tower repairs revisited

Dat Duthinh, Brian M. Phillips
Matlab Function VoronoiBound calculates a Voronoi diagram with inner and outer bounds. This function is useful in defining tributary areas of pressure taps regularly or irregularly placed on the outside surface of a wind tunnel model.

CYCLE_D: NIST Vapor Compression Cycle Design Program, Version 6.0; User's Guide

November 19, 2018
Author(s)
Piotr A. Domanski, J S. Brown, Eric W. Lemmon
The CYCLE_D package simulates vapor compression refrigeration cycles that use pure refrigerants or blends of refrigerants. The model can simulate a basic subcritical or transcritical refrigeration cycle, both with or without a liquid-line/suction-line heat
