Cold Storage Structure Design
There are some parameters that must be determined prior to the construction of the cold storage. These parameters must be accurately determined in order for the system and units to work with high efficiency over many years and to avoid increasing energy consumption. 1- Determination of the type of cold storage It is important that the cold storage is used for what purpose. Pre-cooling chamber: Used for pre-cooling of products in the range of 0/+ 8 °C. Cold storage room (cool room): Used for cold storage in the range of + 8/+ 14 °C. Cold storage chamber: Used for cold storage in the range of -1/+ 8 °C Frozen storage chamber: Used for the preservation of frozen products in the range of -18/-24 °C Blast freezing chamber:-35/-45 °C used for the blast freeze of the range. Cold Room 2- The type of products to be stored Only one type of product should be stored in each room of the warehouse. Different products can be stored together if the product is in enclosed packaging and the storage temperatures match.
