Design and test on simulating test-bed of refrigerated transportation condition.

Author(s) : XIE R., LIU G.

Summary

A simulating test-bed of refrigerated transportation condition has been set up. It consists of two parts. The first part is exterior environment unit. The exterior temperature can be adjusted from -20 to 50°C, humidity from 0-100%, and velocity from 0-30 m/s by control system. At the same time, these parameters can be adjusted and assembled discretionarily. Most climate conditions can be simulated by this part. The second part is a standard refrigerated container. It can adjust the location and size of the entrance and exit of cold air tunnel, change the direction and volume of air discretionarily. The interior temperature can be adjusted from -25 to 20°C, humidity from 0-100% and atmosphere components (including O2, CO2, N2, C2H4). It can analyze different conditions such as multi compartments and multi temperature systems, different goods and different loading methods, etc. Furthermore, precise apparatus and instruments are equipped for detecting and controlling parameters such as temperature, humidity, and velocity and atmosphere component. Biologic and chemical instruments are outfitted for analyzing and detecting the quality of food. The test-bed has been running for one year after debugged. The performance is good and all parameters accord with standards related.
