FORT HOOD UMCS

PURPOSE

• Provide a general overview of the Fort Hood’s Utility Monitoring and Control System (UMCS) and Metering System

TOPICS

• Fort Hood UMCS History• System Configuration• Facility Performance Indexing (Continuous Commissioning)• Use of Meter Data

• Mock Billing• Reimbursable customers

• Next Step• Summary


Fort Hood UMCS / DDC

Army’s First Base-Wide Facility Control SystemUsing Flat LonWorks Open Controls

Technology

In Cooperation with:

• Headquarters U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (HQUSACE)

• COE Engineer Research Development Center CERL

• COE Huntsville Mandatory Center of Expertise for UMCS

• COE Fort Worth District Mechanical Design Branch

• Johnson Controls Inc, Circon, Echelon, Loytec, Honeywell, TAC, Trane, Voyant, Invensys, Gesytec, Distech, Continental Control Systems, Capelon, ABB, others


Fort Hood Open Systems History:

• 2001: Begin collaboration with CERL, HNC, SWF, and vendors on open system technologies

• Led to whiter paper decision to develop LonWorks specification• UFGS 25 10 10 (UMCS), and UFGS 23 09 23 (DDC)

• 2003: ESPC Delivery Order #1 • DDC in 36 Buildings• Non-flat, less than fully open LONWORKS ®

• Accessible via PC over LAN• Eliminated the need for laptops and software

• 2006: ESPC Delivery Order #2• DDC in 55 Buildings• JCI provided a PC solution to replace Network Application Engines (NAEs),

Flat/Open LONWORKS• Workstations and printers delivered to Maintenance Shops• Local Display Panels (LDPs) were included for local access to DDC

• 2009 ESPC Delivery Order #3• Commission and integrate an additional 54 facilities• Includes Facility Performance Indexing (Continuous Commissioning) for a chilled

water thermal storage plant and 17 satellite facilities


Fort Hood BAS


JCI Facility Performance Indexing (JCFPI)

• Continuous Commissioning is becoming the standard for optimizing and sustaining performance of mechanical/electrical systems

• Definition of a Performance Index: A number derived from a formula, used to characterize a set of data

“You can’t manage if you don’t measure”



Why is the VAV zone temp Red? Setpoint is not being achieved.


FORT HOOD METERING SYSTEM

Utilities Monitoring and Control System (UMCS)• Metasys (software) by Johnson Controls, Inc.• Based on LonWorks (open communication system)• Using Run-Time Management• Flat Architect (communication peer-peer)• Point mapping: Current 29,161 points are mapped.

Metering System• Meters Online

• Electric: 125• Gas: 15

• Meter: Wattnode (by CCS)• Variables (42 available) - RMS Power - Watts (ph) - Voltage (ph) - Reactive Power - VARs (ph) - Current (ph) - Power Factor (ph) - Reactive Energy (sum) - RMS Energy – WH, kWh (ph) - Net Energy (ph) - RMS Voltage (Phase A, B, C) - Demand (int, pk) - Reactive Energy - VAR-hours (ph) - AC Frequency

BILLING

Used at Ft Hood to modify behavior and collect reimbursement from non-ASIP organizations.

Reimbursable Customers• Billed with UBS for actual usage• Reimbursements made thru DFAS

Mock Billing• Increases awareness• Fosters competition• Provided to O-6 level commanders by

Garrison Cdr monthly

Family Housing• Residents billed by RCI partner• Refund/charge based on individual unit

baseline


NEXT STEP

• Install electric meters down to 10,000 SF facilities • Continue with installation of gas and water meters • Continue to add buildings to the UMCS

• Expand “Mock” billing

No Measuring – No Management


SUMMARY

• Open systems planning is necessary to get the desired results. The system must be properly specified, designed, and managed.

• Securing NEC approval is lengthy – need Army policy • Investment funding • Recruiting qualified energy employees, including techs to maintain advanced meters and UMCS

• Identify how systems are turned over to the installation• Fully tested and commissioned• To a highly trained staff
