Development of a water-to-water heat pump for tempering water in milking parlors

Creator:

Griswold, Bruce Walter

Abstract:

A water-to-water heat pump was specifically designed and operated to temper process water for cleansing and sanitizing milking parlor equipment using recovered energy from the milk refrigeration system as its heat source. Operation of the water-to-water heat pump in series with the energy recovery system was found to be both...

Energy conservation through evaporator fan cycling in a refrigerated controlled atmosphere apple storage facility

Creator:

Koca, Robert W.

Abstract:

A two year experiment demonstrated electrical energy savings through evaporator fan cycling in part of a full-sized refrigerated controlled atmosphere apple storage facility in Yakima, Washington. Room cooling demand and evaporator fan operation was controlled by the bulk fruit temperature. Refrigerant temperature was regulated by a computer controlled ramping sequence...

Computer simulation of transient refrigeration load in a cold storage for apples and pears

Creator:

Adre, Norberto

Abstract:

Increased consumer demand for fresh fruit throughout the year has created a need for long term storage. Long term storage of fruit uses more energy than fresh market products, thus increasing production cost. Pacific Northwest energy costs and more competition for markets has made energy conservation an important factor to...
