REFRIGERATED VEHICLES. WHAT NEXT.

Author(s) : SCRINE G. R.

Summary

THE SUCCESSFUL OPERATION OF A THIN WALL REFRIGERATED VEHICLE IS DEPENDENT UPON A NUMBER OF OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES SOME OF WHICH ARE DIFFICULT TO IMPLEMENT. ALTHOUGH VEHICLES OF THIS TYPE HAVE BEEN IN USE FOR SEVERAL YEARS, IT IS ONLY RECENTLY THAT FULL-SCALE LABORATORY AND TRANSIT TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE IN THEIR CARGO. THE RESULTS ARE DISCUSSED AND THE IMPORTANT PARAMETERS OF EQUIPMENT DESIGN AND OPERATION ARE REVIEWED. THE EFFECTS OF AGEING OF INSULATION, AIR CIRCULATION, CARGO TEMPERATURE AND REFRIGERATION EQUIPMENT ARE ALL CONSIDERED.
