COOL STORAGE IN AIR-CONDITIONING SYSTEMS.

Author(s) : MICHEL E.

Summary

COMBINING AN AIR-CONDITIONING INSTALLATION WITH A COLD STORAGE ALLOWS: TO REDUCE THE REFRIGERATING CAPACITY TO BE INSTALLED ; TO SAVE ON OPERATING COSTS ; TO INCREASE THE RELIABILITY OF THE SYSTEMS ; AND TO FACILITATE THE IMPLEMENTATION OF AIR CONDITIONING IN URBAN CENTERS. THERE ARE 4 METHODS FOR CARRYING OUT THE THERMAL TRANSFERS NECESSARY FOR SOLIDIFICATION OR FUSION OF WATER: ICE BANK (DIRECT CONTACT EXCHANGER) ; HEAT EXCHANGER WITH INTERNAL PHASE CHANGE MEDIA ; HEAT EXCHANGERS WITH EXTERNAL PHASE CHANGE MEDIA ; AND ICE HARVESTER. FINALLY, WITH REGARD TO TEMPERATURES BELOW 273 K (0 DEG C), A NUMBER OF EUTECTICS HAS PERMITTED THERMAL STORAGE IN INDUSTRIAL COLD TO BECOME A REALITY. THE PAPER ESTABLISHES A SYNTHESIS OF THE VARIOUS MEANS OF STORAGE OF COLD, BOTH BY WELL KNOWN TECHNIQUES AND NEW ONES, AND TO DRAW EXPERIENCE FROM 2 CASES WHICH WERE INVESTIGATED.
