Refrigerators are a common appliance in developed and emerging economies around the
world. These appliances consume significant energy globally and improving their efficiency …

A dynamic model of a domestic refrigerator is developed in this study and is used to analyse
both the steady state (cyclic) and warm load cooling (load processing) operation. The …

Performance analysis and design optimization of refrigerators are primarily carried out by
time-consuming experiments. The current study presents an alternative method to analyze …

The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of hot-wall condenser geometry on
domestic refrigerator-freezers (RFs) in terms of refrigerant charge reduction. A transient …

The present study analyzes the time-dependent thermal behavior of a retrofitted wine
refrigerator cabinet operated by a caloric system emulator. The presence of a full load of …

This paper presents a simulation model for the transient behavior of vapor compression
refrigerating appliances subjected to on-off control patterns focusing on the reciprocating …

User interactions with a refrigerating appliance, such as opening doors and insertion of food
and drink to be cooled and stored, increase energy consumption. This investigation …

To further improve the efficiency of refrigerators and freezers, it is necessary to optimize the
whole cooling cycle. With one-dimensional numerical simulation programs, the transient …

The development process of energy-efficient household refrigerators and freezers is
characterized by time-consuming and expensive experiments. In order to make this …
