Influence of the air conditioning system on the refrigeration performance of retail display cabinets in supermarkets.

Modélisation numérique de l'influence de la climatisation sur les performances frigorifiques des meubles de vente dans les grandes surfaces.

Summary

The study reports on a numerical modelling of air flow and heat transfer around a horizontal retail display cabinet for frozen foods, placed under the air blowing air-conditioning system. This numerical solution is performed for a three-dimensional configuration by using the PHOENICS CFD package. The model can predict the temperature distribution inside the retail cabinet as a function of the principal parameters related to the position, velocity and jet direction of the air blowing.
