Conception of ship provisions stores building as individually refrigerated modules. Parts 1 and 2.

Summary

The authors present recent technical developments in this area. They distinguish the following main areas of activities: energy savings, reduced refrigerant losses, recovery of waste heat, automation, reduced servicing and simplicity of repairs. They conclude that a new modular approach to provisions coolers is cost-effective, in that it reduces labour needs and construction time, decreases the area taken up by the cold rooms and plants, saves energy, reduces refrigerant losses by shortening circuits, etc., eliminates expensive seawater condenser-cooling pipe and allows the possibility of using the waste heat from the cold-production systems in order to heat the room.
