Abstract
Part of any successful energy management program is well designed and conducted energy audits. Basically, there are three types of energy audits. They are 1) Gross, 2) Detailed, and 3) Walk-Through Survey. Unfortunately, the literature seldom distinguishes between the three resulting in some confusion.
This paper helps clear that confusion by defining each type, giving examples of their application, and presenting directions or guidelines. Forms for each type of audit are included with the examples.
The forms and instructions have been developed under a program at Oklahoma State University designed to research and disseminate information to help industry better weather the energy crisis. All forms and instructions have been tested in actual industrial situations and are available from the authors.
