Mathematical model of a water-water refrigerating system.

Author(s) : MAIA A. A. T., MACHADO L., KOURY R. N. N.

Summary

The experimental study in the refrigeration field is a difficult task. In addition to the costs that are generally high and the difficulties related with the test bench construction, the experimental tests normally requires a long time and hard work to be completed. An alternative to the experimental approach consists in simulate the physical system using mathematical models. By using mathematical models the necessity of experimental data can be reduced to just the amount needed to validate the model. In this work is presented a white box mathematical model for a concentric tube evaporator of a refrigeration system. The model was validated with experimental data in steady state and transient operation. The results indicate that the model can be used as a tool in the design of refrigeration systems.
