Performance Analysis of a Domestic Refrigerator

Refrigerator is one of the home appliance utilizing mechanical vapour compression cycle in it process. Performance of the system becomes main issue and many researches are still ongoing to evaluate and improve efficiency of the system. Therefore, this paper presents the development process of refrigerator test rig and performance analysis of a domestic refrigerator. The experiment platform whic...

Thermal Simulation of the Fresh Food Compartment in a Domestic Refrigerator

Abstract: In the field of domestic refrigeration, it is important to look for methods that can be used to simulate, and, thus, improve the thermal behavior of the fresh food compartment. In this sense, this study proposes some methods to model the thermal behavior of this compartment when the shelves’ positions are changed. Temperature measurements at specific locations in this compartment were...

Reducing Food Loss And Waste While Improving The Public's Health.

An estimated 30 percent of the global food supply is lost or wasted, as is about 40 percent of the US food supply. There are valuable synergies between efforts to reduce food loss and waste and those promoting public health. To demonstrate the potential impact of building upon these synergies, we present an analysis of policies and interventions addressing food loss and waste, food security, fo...
