Back to basics: frost.
Type of article: Article
Summary
This article focuses on the operation of air-cooling evaporators in industrial refrigeration applications at temperatures below freezing. These heat exchangers are generally applied to control the environmental conditions in holding freezers, dynamic blast freezers, stationary blast cells, refrigerated docks, and other lower temperature conditioned spaces found in food manufacturing and distribution facilities. It reviews the factors that influence the formation of frost on the evaporator surfaces and discuss how frost accumulation impacts coil performance.
