Modelling of secondary loop refrigeration systems for medium temperature supermarket applications.

Author(s) : HORTON W. T., GROLL E. A.

Summary

A numerical model of the system was developed to properly explore the effect of various components and operating conditions on cycle efficiency. One of the first studies conducted was to investigate the effect of heat transfer in the supply and return lines, due to inadequate insulation, on cycle efficiency. Results of the study conclude that proper insulation of the secondary fluid distribution lines is extremely important to ensure efficient secondary loop performance.
