The big blue line may be the freezer by the way that it spikes up and down. This freezer can be opened and closed based on if something is being frozen. If the freezer is opened, the temperature is going to spike down because other air is getting in it. This is what we see happen with the blue line on this graph.
There are now a bunch of sensors set up at the Village Campus. Project Title: Village Campus Energy Monitoring
Project Goals: My project goals are to be able to pinpoint the spikes on the graph, and the appliance or action that could have caused them.
Members of My Team: Me (As an Independent Project), Sage Morgan & Malia Byram (Are working on this without independent credit)
What I Hope to Accomplish This Year: I hope to be able to make the energy at the Village Campus more efficient, and save them money in one way or another with my energy auditing.
What Progress I've Made So Far: I am able to look at the sensors that we have set up at the Village Campus and be able to see how many kW of energy they are using at any second. I am then able to correlate the amount of kW they are using with the outside temperature in Waimea. I can then calculate the "k" constant for the population growth correlating to the energy used.
What Problems/Solutions Did I Face/Develop: The problems that I have faced is not being able to read the graph in the way that I would like to. I can read the graph in the way of kW and time, but not able to pinpoint the different appliances just yet. The solution to this problem was asking Leila Morisson (Head of the Hotel X energy monitoring project) to explain pinpointing to me, I am still trying to figure it out so that I am able to do this efficiently and quick, which may take some time.
How Does This Fit Into The "Big Picture": Waste and Global Warming has been attributed to using too much of the resources that are available to us. The refrigerators in the Village Campus are an example of this, using energy even when there is no food in the fridge. This can result in a higher energy bill, and wasted energy that could be used elsewhere.
This is the graph for the energy used in the Village Campus so far today. School for the middle/lower school starts at around 7:30-8 and goes until about 3.
As you can see, by zooming in to my graph, I am better equipped to see the spikes and what could have caused them. Since children start arriving to school around 7 am, I used that as my starting point, able to really understand how it changes, seeing that the places that we hooked our sensors up to are places that are used throughout the day with the village campus students.
b2- the blue line is the kitchen
The kitchen you can see, probably began cooking for lunch time, where they use the refrigerators, lights, and other electricities that are used to make sure that it is comfortable and nice when the kiddies have lunch.
- The second line b0 is one that we hooked up the wires, but did not connect it to the server, so we are not receiving accurate data for this room. We think that the spikes are due to movement when other machines move on and off.
How much they are spending: Average for the day x .45 x 24 x 3 (if their all the same)
- if their not, get the average for each one, and do the math, and then add them up.
Continuing work on my Radio Jove radio, I began to solder all the resistors into the board. I am still having good progress, and my radio should be done and ready to assemble the antenna in less than a week! (: 
I started to assemble my Radio Jove radio/antenna set. My progress is adequate, seeing that i've soldered all capacitors, diodes, and inductors. Currently working on the IC (Integrated Circuit) chips, I will still have to install the resistors, transistors, and then begin work on assembling my antenna, which will be located behind the energy lab. With the pace i am working right now, i should have my radio complete and ready for service before we leave for Macworld!
