Summary

ONE OF THE TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS FOR COOLING AIR IN COLD STORES AND PRECOOLING FACILITIES FOR FRUIT AND VEGETABLES IS THE SYSTEM OF THE DIRECT EVAPORATION OF A REFRIGERANT IN A SURFACE AIR COOLER/EVAPORATOR. TO OBTAIN AN EXTREMELY HIGH RELATIVE HUMIDITY IT IS NECESSARY TO KEEP THE TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE COOLER SURFACE AND AIR TEMPERATURE AS SMALL AS POSSIBLE. FOR THE DEHUMIDIFYING CAPACITY OF A COOLER THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A WATER SPRAY OR A SURFACE HEAT EXCHANGER AT THE SAME SURFACE TEMPERATURE.
