Summary

The paper is a result of a research project which focused on optimization of an existing industrial refrigeration system for a large two-temperature level cold storage distribution facility. This system utilized a combination of single-screw and reciprocating compressors (each operating under single-stage compression), an evaporative condenser, and a combination of liquid overfeed and direct expansion evaporators. A mathematical model of the existing system was developed. The model was validated using experimental data recorded from the system. Subsequently, the model served as a tool to evaluate alternative system designs and operating strategies that lead to optimum system performance. A methodology for implementing the optimum control strategy is presented.
