Introducing the importance of refrigeration systems in food

The role of detailed design in refrigeration system performance

Precise adjustment of temperature, humidity and cold air flow
Choosing equipment with appropriate capacity
Optimizing energy consumption and reducing electricity costs
How to insulate and place in the space
Choosing the right refrigerant according to the type of food

The main components of the refrigeration system for food storage centers

1. Industrial compressor

2. Condenser

3. Evaporator

4. Expansion valve and control panel

Types of refrigeration systems for food

1. Direct cooling system

In this type of system, the refrigerant circulates directly inside the evaporator and is used for small and medium-sized refrigerators.

2. Indirect cooling system

In large centers, intermediate fluids such as cold water or glycol are used for heat transfer. This type of design causes more stability and better control over the ambient temperature.

3. Shock Freezer System

For quick freezing of meat, vegetables and prepared foods, the shock freezer system is designed so that the temperature drops below zero in a short period of time. Farmad Sarma has high experience in implementing these types of systems.

Design principles of food cold storage

Calculation of cooling load

The type of product, the duration of storage and the total volume of the cold room are effective in determining the capacity of the refrigeration system. Farmad Sarma experts determine the capacity of the compressor and evaporator by performing accurate thermal calculations.

Insulation design

Insulating the walls, ceiling and floor plays an important role in preventing energy wastage. Choosing the right thickness of a sandwich panel with high density is one of the main principles of design.

Air circulation design

Cold air should be spread evenly throughout the cold storage so that no area has a temperature difference. This is done by designing the path of fans and evaporators.

Classification of food refrigerators

Farmad Sarma designs cold storages in several categories based on the type of product:

Cold storage above zero

For storing fresh food such as fruits, vegetables, dairy products and beverages. The usual temperature in this type of cold storage is between 0 and +5 degrees.

Subzero freezer

For storing meat, fish, chicken and frozen foods. The storage temperature is set at about minus 18 to minus 25 degrees.

Multi-zone cold storage

A combination of above and below zero systems for large centers and chain stores that store several types of products in one collection.

Technology and innovation in cold farmed systems

Farmad Sarma uses modern technologies to increase the efficiency of cooling systems:

Intelligent digital control of temperature and humidity
Online warning system in case of temperature change
Modular design for the future development of cold storage
Use of environmentally friendly refrigerants (R404A and R407C)
Optimization of electricity consumption with inverter technology

These features have made Farmad Sarma systems to be in energy category A and in accordance with international standards.

Optimum design of energy consumption in refrigeration systems

Energy consumption in large cold stores is one of the main concerns of industrial owners. So Farmad Sarma engineers have been able to significantly reduce electricity consumption by using an intelligent control system.

Optimizing the refrigeration cycle, using low-consumption engines and designing proper insulation are the main solutions in this field.

Application cases of Farmed Cold refrigeration systems

Food warehouses of processing plants
Distribution and export centers of food products
Refrigeration of restaurants and hotels
Chain stores and supermarkets
Dairy and meat industries in Mashhad and suburbs

In each project, the design is done based on the real needs and climatic conditions of the region.

The future of refrigeration technology in food preservation

The growth trend of the nutrition and food export industry shows that the design of cooling and refrigeration systems should be smarter and less consuming. Farmad Sarma has enabled remote temperature monitoring and performance control by using integrated Internet of Things (IoT) technology in its refrigeration systems.

Summary

Refrigeration system design for food storage centers is a specialized and sensitive process that requires engineering precision, standard equipment and implementation experience. Farmed Sarma company in Mashhad has been able to implement successful projects all over the country by combining technical knowledge, modern technology and work commitment.
