  2. 1. Ice Slurry as Secondary Fluid in Refrigeration Systems : Fundamentals and Applications in Supermarkets

    Author : Cecilia Hägg; Per Lundqvist; Mats Strömblad; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ice slurry; refrigeration; supermarket; Thermal energy engineering; Termisk energiteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis summarises the work performed within the project known as ICE-COOL at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) on low tem-perature applications of ice slurry. The ICE-COOL project is a Euro-pean Community funded project within the 5th Framework Program. READ MORE

  4. 2. Carbon Dioxide in Supermarket Refrigeration

    Author : Samer Sawalha; Björn Palm; Eckhard Groll; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CO2; carbon dioxide; refrigeration system; supermarket; cascade; indirect; trans-critical; modelling; simulation; experiment; safety analysis; comparison; Mechanical energy engineering; Mekanisk energiteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis theoretically and experimentally investigates different aspects of the application of CO2 in supermarket refrigeration. Theoretical analysis has been performed using computer simulation models developed to simulate CO2 indirect, NH3/CO2 cascade, CO2 trans-critical and direct expansion (DX) R404A systems. READ MORE

  7. 5. Combined Energy Systems Applied to Productive Sectors: The Case of Dairy Farms in Central Bolivia

    Author : Johnny Villarroel-Schneider; Anders Malmquist; Andrew R. Martin; Monica Odlare; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bolivia; polygeneration; trigeneration; productive sector; dairy; biogas; electricity; refrigeration; multiservice; performance; techno-economic; Bolivia; poligeneración; trigeneración; sector productivo; lechería; biogás; electricidad; refrigeración; multiservicio; eficiencia; tecno-económico; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Abstract : Most energy solutions in developing countries focus primarily on solving domestic energy demands of their growing populations without due consideration of sustainable development. On the other hand, in most of these countries, a segment of energy users that has not received enough attention from governments and institutions regarding appropriate energy solutions is the productive sector.
