Harmonic approaches to non-intrusive load diagnostics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)The Non-Intrusive Load Monitor (NILM) is a system that monitors, records and processes voltage and current measurements to establish the operating characteristics of individual loads on a load center from a single aggregate ... -
Harnessing thermoacoustics for waste heat recovery
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Environmental concerns and economic incentives have created a push for a reduction in emissions and an increase in efficiency. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that 20 to 50% of the energy consumed in manufacturing ... -
Harnessing waste heat and reducing wasted lighting : three mechanical structures for efficient energy systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)This thesis presents three mechanical structures designed for efficient energy systems. In [3], Cooley presents a modification of a fluorescent lamp which allows it to detect nearby occupants and dim itself automatically. ... -
Haze measurements through image analysis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)In the recent years, Singapore has been affected by haze caused by slash-and-bum fires in Indonesia. Currently, haze concentration is measured by filtering air samples at various stations in Singapore. In this thesis, ... -
