CASE STUDY OF COST-EFFECTIVE LOW-TEMPERATURE AIR DISTRIBUTION, ICE THERMAL STORAGE.

Author(s) : LANDRY C. M., NOBLE C. D.

Summary

ICE THERMAL STORAGE SYSTEMS HAVE OFTEN BEEN VIEWED AS A COST PREMIUM. WHEN DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS INCLUDE MORE THAN JUST THE REFRIGERATION PLANT, SIGNIFICANT COST REDUCTIONS CAN BE REALIZED. UTILIZING A LOW TEMPERATURE AIR DISTRIBUTION DESIGN (5.56 TO 10.56 DEG C SUPPLY AIR), ONE CAN OFFSET THE CAPITAL COST ASSOCIATED WITH THE REFRIGERATION PLANT THROUGH SAVINGS IN THE PERIPHERAL AIR AND WATER DISTRIBUTION EQUIPMENT. A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS BETWEEN CONVENTIONAL AND LOW TEMPERATURE AIR DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM IS MADE AND DISCUSSED.
