The nocturnal cooling of water used for refrigeration precooling.

Author(s) : PARKINSON R. D. J., FISHER R. K.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

The high power demand of refrigerators used to cool milk can be reduced by more than half, if plate heat exchangers and water are used to precool milk. This paper describes the nocturnal cooling of reusable precooling water. The technique has applications in areas where power distribution authorities are unable to supply the electricity to run large refrigeration compressors or recover the cost of high peak load reticulation. Nocturnal cooling also makes precooling possible on farms where water is not abundant during summer months.
