Author(s) : ROYAL R.

Type of article: Article, Case study

Summary

Most retail grocery stores' refrigeration systems run 24 hours a day, seven days a week, consume one-third to one-half of the total electrical energy for the building and offer a constant supply of low quality heat. The term "quality" of heat is a reference to the comparative temperature available from the source system to the heat recovery application. Low quality heat, for this discussion, represents a comparative temperature difference of less than 100°F (55°C).
