Question: QUESTION 4 ( 2 0 ) A cold room with the external dimension of 4 . 0 m x 2 . 0 m x 2
QUESTION
A cold room with the external dimension of m x m x m is made of the insulation material of polystyrene with thickness of mm whose thermal conductivity is WmK and two metal sheet layers covering on the internal and external surfaces of the insulation material, the metal sheet thickness is mm and its thermal conductivity is WmK the convective heat transfer coefficient on external and internal surfaces are and wmK respectively. The cold room with the indoor temperature of deg C is used in Pretoria to process kg fresh garlics from deg C to deg C in hours, the average respiration heat of garlic in the processing temperature range is mWkg The phase motor used to drive the evaporator fans is rated at KW both the motor and the driving equipment are located inside of the cold room, the heat loads from lighting and air infiltration are ignored, and of safety factor is considered. The refrigeration system has a COP of Calculate:
the heat load on the evaporator
the heat load on the condenser
the electrical power required for the compressor if the overall compressor efficiency is
