Predicting Airflow and Temperature Pattern Inside A Refrigerator Through CFD

Predicting Airflow and Temperature Pattern Inside A Refrigerator Through CFD

An optimized Computerized Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model for frost-free refrigerators is reported A steady-state simulation model was devised and its predictions for temperature and air flow were compared with experimental data. The conservation equations of energy, mass and momentum are solved by using...
