Résumé

Owing to the various regulatory norms, reduction in refrigerator energy consumption has been subjected to a lot of research. When modifying any design to achieve this objective, experiments are usually performed for performance prediction/ assessment, which are expensive and time consuming. Hence to minimize the number of experiments, it is essential to establish a method to predict the performance numerically. Refrigerator, during start-up goes through an initial pull down cycle i.e. temperature of the refrigerator compartments decreases to a required operational point. After that, the refrigerator goes through continuous compressor on-off cycles due to heat leakage through walls and gaskets. It has always been a challenge to model refrigerator operations numerically due to its transient nature. In the present work, a methodology to predict this transient behavior of a domestic refrigerator has been developed and discussed. The methodology embraces the development of transient model based on lumped parameter method, which predicts evaporator temperature, interaction of sealed system with in-compartment air and compartment temperature. This model is robust and computationally very economical, bringing down the design cycle time significantly. This model is intended for qualitative predictions and provides a strong foundation towards developing it further for more accurate quantitative predictions.
