Water heating by recovery of heat released by the refrigerator.

Number: pap. ID: 103

Author(s) : SLAMA R. B.

Summary

With an aim of rationally energy use, our interest was directed towards the refrigerators and all the refrigerating machines. Indeed the heat yielded by the exchanger condenser can be developed for the water heating, floors heating etc. Thus, the principal function of the refrigerator is not changed, but a secondary function is developed: heating. After an encouraging theoretical study, two prototypes were produced in order to validate the theoretical results. A first refrigerator was coupled with a water-heater and another with a heating floor. The water temperature reached, in one day, is of 60°C; which makes it possible to envisage better results with a continuously used refrigerator. Thus, the system makes it possible to carry out a great energy saving.
