Author(s) : COLOMBO I., MAIDMENT G. G., CHAER I., et al.

Type of monograph: Doctoral thesis

Summary

This thesis describes the outcomes a research project that investigate sustainable heating and cooling solutions for retail applications using carbon dioxide natural refrigerant (R744) for food refrigeration. This paper presents the findings from an applied research study on a booster carbon dioxide (R744) system with high and medium temperature heat recovery. The paper includes a description of the conceptual design and a computer model along with its validation based upon some experimental results. The energy consumption and carbon emission reduction using this innovative system is investigated based on an existing supermarket as a case study.
