Summary

NOTES THE EFFECTIVENESS OF UNDERGROUND (OR CAVE) COLD STORAGE FOR STORING FOOD. POINTS OUT THAT DUE TO A LACK OF CORRECT ARCHITECTURAL AND THERMAL DESIGN AND SUITABLE THERMAL INSULATION AND MOISTURE CONTROL, SOME SERIOUS PROBLEMS FREQUENTLY OCCUR IN UNDERGROUND COLD STORAGE SPACES IN SOUTHERN CHINA. DESCRIBES HOW, BY OBSERVING 2 TYPICAL UNDERGROUND COLD STORAGE SPACES (ONE INSULATED, THE OTHER NOT), ONE ANALYSES THE THERMAL QUALITY OF UNDERGROUND COLD STORAGE, INCLUDING THE TEMPERATURE FIELD IN THE ROCK AND AT THE LEVEL OF THE STORAGE SPACE. PROPOSES ADEQUATE THERMAL INSULATION AND MOISTURE PROTECTION. (INT. BUILD. SERV. ABSTR., GB., 25, N 2, 1990/03-04, 90-00636.
