Types of household composition that influence energy problem beliefs and home energy conservation behaviors according to resource constraints among western United States' renters

Creator:: Yoo, Kyung Sook
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to further the understanding of two types of renter households' energy problem belief and energy conservation behaviors. The theoretical framework for this study was Niemeyer's (1982) model of energy adjustment. Niemeyer found that resource constraints were the significant factors in the number of existing...

Gibbs states and correlation

Creator:: Glaffig, Clemens H.
Abstract:: Certain important concepts from the theory of Gibbs states are first described in the simple setting of the finite volume case. With the extension to the infinite volume case, Gibbs states are defined, exhibiting two different approaches to the subject. The general structure of the set of Gibbs states is...

Direct conversion of solar radiation to mechanical power using thermostatic bimetals and linear Fresnel lenses

Creator:: Pritchard, Vernon Ross
Abstract:: Conversion of solar energy to mechanical power through the use of thermostatic bimetals and linear Fresnel lenses was found to be both theoretically and experimentally feasible. Using linear Fresnel lenses to concentrate sunlight on bimetallic coils caused a simple sun powered motor to produce rotational shaft power. However, continuous rotational...

The effect of energy efficiency on the demand for heat

Creator:: Cleland, Andrew L.
Abstract:: Increased efficiency of household energy-using appliances effectively lowers the price of the services these devices provide. Basic consumer theory predicts that ceteris paribus, these lower prices will increase usage, thus making the effect on total energy demand ambiguous. In the literature, this phenomenon has been called the rebound effect. In...

Congressional influence on Department of Justice merger decisions : a case study

Creator:: Goodwin, Diana K.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to analyze the possibility of political influence upon the Department of Justice merger decisions within the brewing industry. Political preference was measured by the congressional ratings of a liberal political action committee, The Americans for Democratic Action (ADA), thus giving a liberalness score. Regressions...

Analysis and optimal sizing of an energy storage system for wind farm applications

Creator:: Yen, Zuan Z.
Abstract:: Modern wind energy is the technology of choice with a short payback period for increasing renewable energy portfolios. Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), a United States power authority in the Pacific Northwest expects to increase their wind energy capacity from 2,000 megawatts to 6,000 megawatts within the next five years. Currently...

Upgrading of a model compound of bio-oil using carbon monoxide in high temperature water

Creator:: Phipps, Ezra Daniel
Abstract:: Meeting the energy demands of the future is one of the most important challenges facing the engineering community today. An example of this problem is transportation fuels. Most of the current transportation fuels are composed of petroleum hydrocarbons. Finding a viable alternative is important given the potential scarcity of these...

Downstream processing of microalgal biomass for biofuels

Creator:: Sander, Kyle B.
Abstract:: This thesis documents the work carried out investigating the downstream processing of algal biomass for biofuel production. A life cycle assessment was conducted on a hypothetical algal biodiesel process in which it was found drum drying and cell component separation were life cycle intensive processes. A laboratory experiment was conducted...
