Frost on air-cooling evaporators.

Author(s) : REINDL D. T., JEKEL T. B.

Type of article: Article

Summary

In this article, the authors focus on the operation of air-cooling evaporators in industrial refrigeration applications at temperatures below freezing. These heat exchangers are generally applied to control the environmental conditions in holding freezers, dynamic blast freezers, stationary blast cells, refrigerated docks, as well as other lower temperature conditioned spaces found in food manufacturing and distribution facilities. The authors review the factors that influence the formation of frost on the evaporator surfaces and discuss how frost accumulation impacts coil performance.
