Mission andVision

Mission of EETD
Perform analysis, research, and development
leading to better energy technologies and
reduction of adverse energy-related environmental
impacts
4
Vision
  • Sustainable economic and environmental
    development is essential for a thriving and just
    world
  • Major changes in energy systems are needed to
    achieve such a world
  • All countries, industrialized and developing
  • Of these changes, energy efficiency has a special
    role
  • Countless energy efficiency opportunities are
    cost effective (i.e., pay for themselves)
  • Net economic impacts are huge
  • E.g., U.S. economy grew 35 between 1973 and
    1986, energy grew 0, and the annual saving is
    gt200B/yr
  • Environmental benefits of energy efficiency are
    very large, considering that gt70 of pollutants
    are from energy production

5
Vision
  • We believe that our RD and analysis can
    contribute to increases in energy efficiency and
    associated improvements in the environment beyond
    our limited resources by
  • Developing improved energy technologies
  • Performing energy analyses that influence
    policies in industrialized and developing
    countries
  • Developing innovative techniques to improve the
    environment (especially related to energy use)

Optimal Sampler Networks for Detecting
Biological Attacks in Buildings
  • Motivation
  • Protecting building occupants from biological
    agent releases requires reliable detection.
  • A robust sampler network must account for all
    possible modes of building operation, and all
    potential attack scenarios.
  • Scientific Needs
  • Indoor air flow and transport model for
    biological agents (especially for large public
    facilities)
  • Aerosol field data to validate model.
  • Metric to compare candidate sensor networks
  • Optimization algorithm to find best network.
  • Field data to verify optimal network selection.
  • Optimization Approach
  • Define metric to compare candidate networks
    Fraction of Area Infected (FAI). FAI is the
    fraction of occupants infected if an attack is
    undetected.
  • Develop numerical method - MURnet - that
    minimizes FAI using a pool of simulation results
    from a Monte Carlo analysis.

19
Comparison of Model Predictions and Tracer
Measurements
  • Significant Results
  • Field experiments in large high-profile transit
    building.
  • First whole-building experiments of aerosol
    dispersion.
  • Replicate experiments demonstrate significant
    day-to-day variability.
  • Good agreement between model and data.
  • Flow and transport model captures variability and
    uncertainty in exposure predictions.
  • Designed and verified robust optimization
    algorithm.
  • This methodology is being used in major transit
    facilities around the country
  • An improved optimization algorithm is currently
    being developed to take into account
    sampling/detection performance (especially
    important for new, faster biodetectors on the
    horizon).
