CFD analysis of dairy cold room: a case study.

Author(s) : ADHIKARY P., PRAKASH D., SAHA S.

Summary

A cold room for dairy has been designed to provide a better storage facility for perishable dairy food stuff in the community and to promote the living standard of the people. It is an adaptive design aimed at designing the cold room to suit the prevailing factors with reference to some design calculations. The design complies with all standard refrigeration principles and theory to best suit the prevalent climatic condition in India. This design is hypothetically intended to serve as a guide for future fabrication and erection. The cold room has an estimated capacity of 2.0TR (2TR*1 No or 1TR*2Nos evaporators). Its operating ambient temperature is 36 Deg C. In practice, the cold room will operate for 24 hours daily and will provide storage for dairy products. The cold room is expected to serve and provide the demand of the people for a period of 10-15 years before a complete overhaul. The cold room if erected as designed inevitably will enhance the living standard of the community by providing them the access to fresh foods and dairy products. It will also improve the local economy through better preservation. Good agreement was found between the simulated results and obtained project site data.
