CONTINUOUS CONTROL OF REFRIGERATING APPLIANCES: LIMITS DUE TO CAPILLARY TUBE BEHAVIOUR.

Author(s) : KUIJPERS L. J. M., JANSSEN M. J. P.

Summary

DOMESTIC REFRIGERATION APPARATUS WORKS WITH ON/OFF CONTROL, A CAPILLARY AND A FIXED REFRIGERANT CHARGE. CONTINUOUS AND OPTIMUM CONTROL, DEPENDENT ON AMBIENT AND PRESET CABINET TEMPERATURE, YIELDS AN ENERGY SAVING WHICH IS MAXIMAL. THIS IS NOT REALISTIC FOR DOMESTIC UNITS, AND ONLY ONE CAPILLARY AND A FIXED CHARGE HAVE TO BE PREFERRED. IMPLICATIONS CONCERNING THE ENERGY SAVING HAVE BEEN INVESTIGATED VIA NUMERICAL SIMULATION. CAPILLARIES HAVE BEEN STUDIED IN CASE OF AN UPRIGHT FREEZER. IT HAS BEEN SHOWN THAT AN OPTIMIZATION IS POSSIBLE, WITH ONLY ONE CAPILLARY AND A FIXED REFRIGERANT LOAD, INDEPENDENT OF THE AMBIENT. USING THIS CONFIGURATION A LARGE PART OF THE ENERGY SAVING MAXIMUM POSSIBLE CAN BE REALIZED.
