  1. 1. Vertical Display Cabinets in Supermarkets - Energy Efficiency and the Influence of Air Flows

    Author : Monica Axell; RISE; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; display cabinet; model; simulation; supermarket; CFD; air curtain; energy; performance; air distribution; display case; infiltration;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns investigations of the performance of vertical refrigerated display cabinets. Such cabinets are in widespread use and account for a considerable proportion of the energy used in shops. The open front is important for the shop-owner, who wants the chilled items in the cabinet to be well exposed and easily accessible. READ MORE

  2. 2. Laminar-flow Liquid-to-air Heat Exchangers - Energy-efficient Display Cabinet Applications

    Author : Caroline Haglund Stignor; Värmeöverföring; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy-efficiency; indirect cooling; display cabinet; pressure drop; heat transfer; flat-tube heat exchanger; cooling coil; laminar;

    Abstract : Provisions are stored and displayed in supermarkets and grocery stores, at a temperature lower than the ambient, in display cabinets, which are responsible for a significant amount of the energy use in this sector. During the 1990s, major changes in the regulations governing the use of synthetic refrigerants took place in Sweden. READ MORE

  3. 3. Supermarket refrigeration systems for demand response in smart grids

    Abstract : With an increasing share of intermittent renewable energy sources in the electrical grid, the need for adapting the demand to the available supply of electricity becomes increasingly important. Within this thesis, the demand response capacity by supermarket refrigeration systems are investigated and methods for enabling it is developed. READ MORE

  4. 4. Energy in supermarkets - An overview on the energy flows and refrigeration controls

    Author : Tommie Månsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The electrical energy used by supermarkets represents approximately 3% of Sweden's annual energy use. Of this, the refrigeration system accounts for 50%. To reduce greenhouse gases introduced by energy generation, a larger share of renewable energy sources must be implemented. READ MORE
