Cold Storage Cooling Process and Parts

Whaley Products, Inc. has the ability to produce custom chiller systems for any specification. WPI has prided itself on working to accommodate just about any cooling requirement. Optimized flexibility offered by Whaley can supply you with packaged chillers, modular chillers, closed loop systems, glycol to water systems, portable systems, and many pump tank & cooling tower systems.

Industrial, commercial and individualized business use cold storage cooling systems to keep their products cold, or frozen.The customizing options are unlimited because many different types of industries can use cold storage. From warehouses, medical facilities, research/science labs, and portable transits, cold storage is everywhere. The first step, of cold storage, is deciding if freezing or refrigeration is needed. These temperatures will be determined by the industry being used. For instance ice cream warehouses will differ from beer warehouses.

The refrigeration process keeps the cold storage room or container cool. The steps and their description below are used with more power driven equipment, sizes, and different refrigerants depending on industry.

  • Evaporation- liquid refrigerant at low pressures makes contact with the heat source, the refrigerant then absorbs the heat and produces a vapor. An evaporator is used for the heat exchanging process.
  • Compression- compressor raises the pressure of the refrigerant vapor, the increase of temperature at which the vapors condense will be above the temperature at which heat sinks
  • Condensing- the gas now carries heat energy, is absorbed by the evaporator, then enters the condenser, the condenser is at a higher temperature than the heat sink, as the vapor becomes a liquid, it becomes super
  • Expansion- The liquid is then put under extreme pressure and releases cold air out
