Summary
IN THE TEMPERATE CLIMATE OF NEW ZEALAND THE INSULATION OF FARM MILK STORAGE VATS AND OF BULK MILK TANKERS IS NOT ECONOMICALLY VIABLE ON THE BASIS OF THE SAVINGS IN ENERGY COSTS THAT COULD RESULT. A MILK PRECOOLING PLATE HEAT EXCHANGER, IN COMBINATION WITH A DIRECT EXPANSION REFRIGERATED VAT IS THE MOST EFFICIENT METHOD FOR MILK CHILLING ON NEW ZEALAND DAIRY FARMS. HOWEVER SIGNIFICANT VARIATIONS IN THE CHILLING EFFICIENCY HAVE BEEN FOUND. THE AUTHOR GIVES MEASURES FOR IMPROVING PERFORMANCE.
