ENERGY ECONOMY AND HEAT RECOVERY WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO SEA TRANSPORT.

ECONOMIE D'ENERGIE ET RECUPERATION DE CHALEUR NOTAMMENT EN TRANSPORT MARITIME.

Author(s) : MATTAROLO L.

Summary

IN EVALUATING THE ENERGY PERFORMANCE OF REFRIGERATING SYSTEMS, TWO ASPECTS ARE CONSIDERED: THE EFFICIENCY WITH WHICH COLD IS PRODUCED AND THE EFFECTIVENESS OF COLD UTILIZATION. THE FIRST ASPECT IS EXAMINED USING EXERGY FUNCTIONS. THE EXERGETIC EFFICIENCY IS VERY LOW, PARTICULARLY AT PARTIAL OPERATING LOADS. THE SECOND ASPECT IS RELATED TO THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TOTAL REFRIGERATING EFFECT AVAILABLE AND THE PROPORTION USEFULLY EMPLOYED. THE SITUATION IS CRITICAL, ESPECIALLY IN SMALL PLANT, SUCH AS DOMESTIC REFRIGERATORS, AND IN REFRIGERATED TRANSPORT. IN THE CASE OF SEA TRANSPORT ONE MUST TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THAT CONTAINERIZATION IS RAPIDLY REPLACING CONVENTIONAL SHIPS AND THAT THERE IS AN INCREASE IN VESSELS WHICH FREEZE AND STORE FISH AT SEA.
