Solar domestic refrigeration equipments.

Author(s) : CHIKOUCHE A., ABBAD B., ELMETENANI S., et al.

Summary

In the last decade, the demand for perishable products has increased drastically, resulting in an increasing demand for domestic refrigerators and freezers. The use of solar energy for environmental control is receiving much attention as a result of the projected world energy shortage. Solar refrigeration has the potential to improve the quality of life of people who live in areas with insufficient electricity The unit for development of solar equipments is actually conducting different experiments on locally produced domestics refrigerators and freezers using solar electric energy on one part, and a new environmentally friendly refrigerant on the other part, and the results are very encouraging. The experimental system is the most widely used domestic refrigerator in our country which has an internal volume of 330 l, 1/5 hp cooling capacity and works on R134a. The various achievements presented, show that UDES acts strongly in favour of the promotion of renewable energies, with less impact on the environment. The research projects undertaken are directed toward the development of refrigeration and air conditioning equipments and systems using solar energy and refrigerants with less global warming and ozone depletion potential.
