1966
AN AUTOMATED CENTRAL BUILDING CONTROL SYSTEM IS BEING INSTALLED AT THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH PRIMARILY TO CONTROL HEATING IN 21 BUILDINGS. AN OPERATOR CAN SELECT A PARTICULAR SYSTEM FOR SURVEILLANCE OR ADJUSTMENT, AND AUTOMATICALLY A LARGE SCALE SCHEMATIC OF THE SYSTEM IS DISPLAYED ON A SCREEN AND ALL CONTROL CIRCUITS ARE SWITCHED TO THE SYSTEM UNDER…

1967
A COLLEGE CAMPUS HAVING A LARGE NUMBER OF SEPARATE BUILDINGS WITH ONE BASIC HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEM IS AN IDEAL SITUATION FOR REALIZING GREAT BENEFITS FROM CENTRALIZED BUILDING CONTROL SYSTEMS. TYPICAL REQUIREMENTS AND ADVANTAGES OF SUCH SYSTEMS ARE DISCUSSED BRIEFLY AND DESCRIPTIONS OF THE SYSTEM AT FOUR MAJOR UNIVERSITIES ARE GIVEN. THIS…

Hallenberg, E.X. – Research Development, 1964
The complexity of today's research laboratories requires a completely controllable environmental surrounding. Research facilities require carefully controlled temperatures, relative humidity, and moisture, and must be free of interference from air-borne sound, mechanical vibrations, and electrical sources. Also desirable are special power…

Little, Philip F. – Actual Specifying Engineer, 1963
Several types of refrigeration systems available to the consulting engineer are discussed. The engineer should analyze all energy sources and base his recommendations on comparative costs and availability of sources, keeping in mind that operating costs are of primary importance to schools. The analysis begins with a careful appraisal of the…

Milbank, N. O. – 1968
Two similarly large buildings and air conditioning systems are comparatively analyzed as to energy consumption, costs, and inefficiency during certain measured periods of time. Building design and velocity systems are compared to heating, cooling, lighting and distribution capabilities. Energy requirements for pumps, fans and lighting are found to…
