PRECOOLING. FORCED AIR CIRCULATION SYSTEMS AND THE EFFECT OF PACKAGING.
LA PREREFRIGERATION. LES SYSTEMES A CIRCULATION D'AIR FORCEE ET L'INFLUENCE DU CONDITIONNEMENT.
Author(s) : MORAS P.
Type of article: Article
Summary
THE PRECOOLING PROCESS ADOPTED (ESPECIALLY FOR AIR) DOES NOT ALWAYS PROVIDE OPTIMUM EFFICIENCY. AN UNSATISFACTORY HEAT TRANSFER BETWEEN THE PACKAGED PRODUCT AND THE COOLING MEDIUM IS OFTEN THE CAUSE. AMONGST THE EXISTING PRECOOLING SYSTEMS, THE AUTHOR DESCRIBES MAINLY FORCED AIR PROCESSES, AS THEY APPEAR EASIER, ALTHOUGH REQUIRING A BETTER CONTROL OF REFRIGERANT DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS. THE STUDIES OF CALCULATION PROCEDURES AND THE USE OF FORCED AIR SYSTEMS BEGAN MORE THAN 20 YEARS AGO, BUT THEIR APPLICATIONS ARE RELATIVELY RECENT.
