  1. High temperature storage: (0~5)

Required cooling capacity of cold storage = cold storage volume * 120W 

Refrigeration capacity of unit = Refrigeration capacity required for cold storage 

Evaporator area of cold storage = Refrigeration capacity required for cold storage * 1.1 times .

 

2. Medium and low temperature: (~15-~18)

Required cooling capacity of cold storage = cold storage volume * 150~300W 

Refrigeration capacity of unit = Refrigeration capacity required for cold storage 

Evaporator area of cold storage = Refrigeration capacity required for cold storage * 1.3~1.5

Evaporation area of pipe = Refrigeration area * 1.1~1.5 times .

3. Low temperature freezing storage: (~23-~30)

Required cooling capacity of cold storage = cold storage volume * 300~400W 

Refrigeration capacity of unit = Refrigeration capacity required for cold storage * 1.5~1.8 

Evaporator area of cold storage = Refrigeration capacity required for cold storage divided by 90~100W 

Evaporation area of pipe = cold storage area * 4~5 times.

 

Generally, each HP of the compressor can carry about 10~15 cubic meters at high temperature, about 8~10 cubic meters at medium temperature, and about 4~6 cubic meters at freezing

The area of the air cooler that each HP of the compressor can carry is about 16 square meters at high temperature, about 12 square meters at medium temperature, and about 8 square meters at freezing
