Designing of cold stores and choosing of cooling system elements

In this study, calculation of cooling load and choosing of the cooling system elements such as compressor, condenser and evaporator were explained for designing of the cold storage. Transmission heat (q1), infiltration heat (q2), product heat (q3), heat of other sources (q4) and unknown and unexpected heat (q5) which is components of the cooling load were calculated. In addition, amount of the cooling fluid was calculated and choosing of the compressor, the condenser and the evaporator were explained. © 2008 Asian Network for Scientific Information.
