ATP test station, international refrigerated transport: ATP Agreement, consequences on the environment.

Auteurs : CHATZIDAKIS K., CHATZIDAKIS S.

Résumé

Some of the alternatively proposed ATP testing procedures for checking the in-service and second hand refrigerated transport equipment have failed in their conception and it is possible according to the choice of testing methods to come to incorrect results, concerning the actual effectiveness of the thermal insulation and the efficiency of the cooling appliances of the tested specimen. The consequences are, apart from the attestation of inefficient equipment with a quality deficit, endangering public health, an increase in the fuel consumption needed for the mechanically driven compressor of the cooling unit of the refrigerated transport equipment and also an increase of the CO2 emissions and the environmental pollution. This study analyses ATP testing procedures, investigates the impact on the environment and gives some proposals for improvement. Also a simulation model is introduced using a transient finite difference algorithm, developed for a modern ATP Test chamber and a typical specimen vehicle to be tested. Simulation results are compared to experimental measurements taken under real conditions by a data acquisition system.
