Supermarket refrigeration and heat recovery using CO2 as refrigerant : A comprehensive evaluation based on field measurements and modelling

• This project investigates the potentials, challenges and opportunities of using CO2 as refrigerant in the supermarket refrigeration and heat recovery systems. The focus is on CO2 trans-critical booster system, as the emerging state-of-the-art system in supermarket refrigeration field. The CO2 booster system performance is studied using computer modeling and field measurement analysis to find the most energy efficient ways for providing simultaneous cooling and heating demands in supermarkets. Through this research work, the solutions available on the market are investigated, suggestions on system modifications and optimization are made, and new system solutions are suggested.
