Cold room calculation

Stored goods
Storage conditions: -20ºC / RH 90%
Freezing point: -2ºC
Specific heat (PT/NT): 3.53 / 1.85 kJ/(kg·K)
Latent heat: 266.8 kJ/kg

Cold room features

Ambient conditions: 45°C / 25.5 °C WT
Cold room internal volume: 108 m³
Internal sizes: 12 m (length) x 3 m (width) x 3 m (height)
Isolation thickness: 150 mm
Heat transmission rate: 0.025 W/(m·K)

1. Goods refrigeration loads 74844 kJ/day

- Goods rotation: 2700 kg at -5ºC each 24 hours 74844 kJ/day

2. Transmission heat gain 154183 kJ/day

- Walls: 91.4 m² x 0.16 W/(m²·K) x 65 °C = 83193 kJ/day
- Roof: 38.3 m² x 0.16 W/(m²·K) x 65 °C = 34637 kJ/day
- Floor: 38.3 m² x 0.15 W/(m²·K) x 65 °C = 31802 kJ/day
- Door: 5 m² x 0.16 W/(m²·K) x 65 °C = 4551 kJ/day

3. Air renewal heat gain 73030 kJ/day

- Air renewal rate: 4.8 renewals/day x 108 m³ x 140.9 kJ/m³

4. Internal loads heat gain 72144 kJ/day

- Heaters: 135 W
- Defrosting: 217 W
- Evaporator fans: 650 W

TOTAL COOLING NEEDS 374201 kJ/day

- Security margin: +10 %
- Comperssor operation time per day: 20 h
Cooling capacity needed: 5717 W
