Indirect cooling with ammonia in supermarkets.

Author(s) : NYVAD J., LUND S.

Summary

A comparison of a traditional (H)CFC based plant and an indirect ammonia plant is discussed. In a Danish supermarket, the existing (H)CFC-plant has been replaced by a new indirect two-stage ammonia plant without replacing neither any display cabinets nor evaporators in the cold storage rooms. Measurements have been made both on the old and on the new plant. The measurements include display cabinet temperatures, cold storage room temperatures and power consumption. Preliminary calculations show remarkable results as a 14% energy saving when operating with the new indirect ammonia plant is obtained.
