IIR document
A simulation model for evaporation of defrosted water in household refrigerators.
Author(s) : BANSAL P. K., XIE G.
Type of article: Article, IJR article
Summary
The article presents a simple dynamic simulation model for predicting the evaporation rates of defrosted water from water trays in domestic refrigerators. The model was successfully tested for one domestic refrigerator. It was used to investigate the effect of different variables (ambient pressure, relative humidity, air velocity, compressor, heat, auxiliary condenser) by comparing eight different arrangements with each other on a consistent basis for effective evaporation of defrosted water. The model results indicate that the evaporation of water can be increased to the necessary rate by raising the water temperature and optimising the velocity of air over the water tray.
