Summary

THE ENERGY CONSUMPTION FOR THE OPERATION OF REFRIGERATION PLANT IN ITALY AMOUNTS TO A SIGNIFICANT PERCENTAGE OF OVERALL ELECTRIC POWER CONSUMPTION. THE EFFICIENCY OF A GREAT NUMBER OF THESE PLANT, ESPECIALLY THOSE OF LOW CAPACITY, IS VERY LOW. THE BEST WAY OF EVALUATING THESE EFFICIENCIES IS USING THE CRITERION, BY WHICH THE LOSSES FOR EACH PROCESS CAN BE ESTIMATED ACCURATELY, BASING ON THE FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS. THE AUTHOR STRESSES HOW THE USE OF THE FUNCTION IS ESPECIALLY ADVISABLE IN THE DOMAIN OF TEMPERATURES LOWER THAN THE AMBIENT.
