Summary

This article is the Spanish translation of an article presented at the IIR meeting in Castá Papiernicka, Czech Republic (see the Bulletin of the IIR, reference 2009-2325). In the past, mainly initial investment costs and reliability have been the driving forces for the selection of the refrigeration systems in supermarket applications. At present, energy saving criteria become more and more the focus of attention. Characteristic features of supermarket applications are year round operation regardless of outdoor ambient and wide load variations in short time intervals. This paper shows the potential of energy savings if frequency controlled reciprocating compressors are used in supermarket refrigeration. Furthermore, a comparison of field measurement results between a reciprocating compressor system with VFD and a conventional system is presented.
