| Energy Managementin Illuminating Systems |
| by Kao Chen, P.E., 1999,ISBN: 0849326281 |
| As our dependence on and need for abundant energy grows, it becomes increasinglyimportant for engineers and managers to develop and maintain energy efficientsystems and build effective energy management programs. Energy Managementin Illuminating Systems presents the latest concepts, innovative methods,and state-of-the art technologies in commercial or industrial lightingsystems and energy management. |
| An effective energy management program comprises three essential elements:organization, technology, and economics. However, the success of any managementprogram clearly must begin with an energy effective illuminating system,which in turn depends upon using sound engineering analysis and designprinciples during the projects early stages. |
| In this book, the author-with long and unique experience in the field-providesthe details of proven methods for achieving these goals. He presents: |
- How to organize and operatethe illumnation energy management program
- The elements of designing energyeffective illuminating systems-systems that can also increase worker productivityand reduce operating costs,
- The latest in efficient systemcomponents, including light sources, ballasts, and luminaires, and
- How to evaluate energy efficiency,including discussion of the impact of energy efficient equipment on powerquality, harmonics, the "K" factor, and lighting energy standards.
|
| Energy Management in Illuminating Systems shows how to design andmanage energy effective lighting systems for industrial or commercial facilities.With this book, designers, engineers, and managers finally have a complete,how-to guide for applying practical energy management principles to varioussystems of illumination. |
| Features: |
- Shows how to succeed in energymanagement through its three essential elements: organization, technology,and economics
- Details the steps toward achievingenergy effectiveness-applying energy where it is most needed
- Outlines new concepts and proceduresin illuminating system design
- Describes energy efficient illuminatingsystem components
