This book was released on 2019-03-06 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making your home more energy efficient will help you to reduce high energy bills, improve comfort and help to protect the environment. Saving energy at home is easy. This book contains time-tested tips and energy-saving choices for reducing your home energy consumption: The book covers the following areas: * Cutting Heating and Cooling Costs * Energy Efficient Use of Appliances. * Saving Energy in the Kitchen * Energy Efficient Home Lighting * Energy Efficient Water Use Here's just a small sample of the tips included: Turn the thermostat to its lowest setting if you won't be at home for a few days. You can turn off the heating system completely if there's no danger of pipes freezing while you're away. Walk around the house with a candle on a cold windy day to see where cold may be entering around doors and windows. Save on heating costs and stay comfortable in cold weather by dressing to retain body heat. Layer your clothing: wear lightweight basic garments, such as a shirt or blouse or short-sleeved sweater, covered by heavier garments, such as a Saving Energy sweater vest, and topped with a warm jacket or sweater jacket. If you become too warm you can adjust your own body thermostat by taking off a layer. To speed the installation of weatherstripping, try stapling instead of nailing it. Keeping your home well caulked is one of the best ways to save energy. When you caulk, make sure joints are thoroughly dry-you can dry deep crevices with a cloth stretched over the blade of a putty knife, or with a blast of hot air from a hair dryer. When caulking several joints, start with the smallest joint and recut the tube's nozzle as necessary for successively larger joints. A room will stay warmer in cold weather if curtains fit tightly against the window's frame so that warm room air doesn't move across the cold. window surface. A fixed valance at the top and sides of the curtains will help, and so will weighting or fastening the curtains at the bottom. Installing a window greenhouse in one or more of your house's south-facing windows is an unusual (and effective) way to gain extra heat for your home in winter, to reduce the loss of heat to the outdoors in the evening, and, of course, to provide an encouraging environment for plants.
Download or read book Energy Saving Tips written by Charles nehme and published by Charles Nehme. This book was released on 2020-11-25 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy efficiency is the goal of many homeowners and businesses. Energy savings can be achieved through a variety of measures, from simple changes in lifestyle to larger investments in energy-efficient products. One of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to reduce energy costs is to reduce the amount of energy used. Homeowners can do this by taking simple steps such as turning off lights and appliances when not in use, using natural light whenever possible, and using energy-efficient light bulbs. Businesses can also reduce energy use by installing energy-efficient lighting, heating and cooling systems, and water-saving devices. Installing energy-efficient products can also help reduce energy costs. Many appliances, such as refrigerators, dishwashers, and clothes washers, now come with energy-efficient models that use less energy than older models. Installing energy-efficient windows and doors can also help improve a home’s energy efficiency. Finally, investing in renewable energy sources such as solar panels or wind turbines can also help reduce energy costs. Renewable energy sources can provide clean, renewable power to homes and businesses, reducing the need to rely on traditional energy sources. By taking simple steps to reduce energy use and investing in energy-efficient products, homeowners and businesses can make significant energy savings. Over time, these energy savings can add up to significant long-term savings and help protect the environment.

Download or read book Energy Efficient High Performance Processors written by Jawad Haj-Yahya and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores energy efficiency techniques for high-performance computing (HPC) systems using power-management methods. Adopting a step-by-step approach, it describes power-management flows, algorithms and mechanism that are employed in modern processors such as Intel Sandy Bridge, Haswell, Skylake and other architectures (e.g. ARM). Further, it includes practical examples and recent studies demonstrating how modem processors dynamically manage wide power ranges, from a few milliwatts in the lowest idle power state, to tens of watts in turbo state. Moreover, the book explains how thermal and power deliveries are managed in the context this huge power range. The book also discusses the different metrics for energy efficiency, presents several methods and applications of the power and energy estimation, and shows how by using innovative power estimation methods and new algorithms modern processors are able to optimize metrics such as power, energy, and performance. Different power estimation tools are presented, including tools that break down the power consumption of modern processors at sub-processor core/thread granularity. The book also investigates software, firmware and hardware coordination methods of reducing power consumption, for example a compiler-assisted power management method to overcome power excursions. Lastly, it examines firmware algorithms for dynamic cache resizing and dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) for memory sub-systems.
