Özet

Spatial variation of temperature and relative humidity were estimated with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) at top, middle and base levels for peach storage at +1oC and 90% relative humidity and verified with measured data in a cold store with evaporative cooling system. Ansys Fluent Software was used for CFD modelling. CFD models were vali-dated with sensors measurements. Results were eval-uated by using descriptive statistics, relative error and variance analyses. Relative error of the CFD model was calculated as 9.77 for the ambient temper-ature and 1.29 for relative humidity for peach storage. The developed CFD models estimated the ambient factors with an acceptable error in the evaporative cold store for peach storage. © 2022,Latin American Applied Research. All Rights Reserved.
