Experimental investigation into frost formation on display cabinet evaporators in order to implement defrost on demand.
Author(s) : DATTA D., TASSOU S. A., MARRIOTT D.
Summary
The paper reports on experimental investigations carried out on a vertical high temperature display cabinet under controlled laboratory conditions and analyzes the observed results to identify parameters which best represent the degradation of the system performance due to frosting. The effects of air temperature, air humidity and evaporator inlet temperature on frost growth and thermal performance are studied by using frost accumulation and an energy transfer coefficient based on the log mean enthalpy difference.
