Demand Side Energy Management System (DSEMS) manages energy demand by controlling end-use appliances in a refined, energy-saving, cost-efficient and user-friendly way. The DSEMS runs on an Android tablet computer, which serves as energy gateway to communicate with two types of controllers via ZigBee network. Smart sockets connected to the ZigBee network will monitor and control plug-in loads and IR remote controller (IRRC) for air-conditioner temperature setting. The proposed system has been installed in an apartment with over 24 rooms as a paradigm, which proved that the DSEMS can realize the autonomous energy-saving via real-time surveillance and control on household appliances.

Roof is one of the main structures of a building, and it plays an important role in improving the degree of indoor thermal conformability so as to reduce the using of air-conditioner. Through a contrastive study on eco-roof and the common roof in a certain living district in Xiangtan City, the article comes to the conclusion: the water-storing green roof can enhance the urban eco-environment, modulate the indoor thermal property and decrease the using of air-conditioner.

Reducing the energy consumption of a data center has recently become important because the data center market is rapidly expanding. We developed the “IT-facility linkage system” to deal with this energy saving requirement. This system reduces the amount of energy consumed in a data center by linking two systems, one is the optimized server load allocation system and the other is the air conditioning optimization control system. One of the key technologies of the “IT-facility linkage system” is the precise prediction of the server inlet temperature. If we can comprehend the future temperature distributions, we can reduce the amount of energy consumed in a data center by consolidating the IT load to the more effectively cooled servers. We carried out computational thermal fluid dynamics to predict server inlet temperatures and evaluated the prediction precision by comparing the measured temperature data for this paper. As a result, we found out that when we use a detailed rack model and reproduce the characteristic air flow of a data center such as the recirculation, we can precisely predict the server inlet temperature to within less than one degree.
