  • Abstract:
  • Cold storehouses have larger cold chain through out in India. But effective performance of these storehouses is biggest challenge for storing vegetables and food products. In the given paper the effective performance of the cold storehouse was checked on the basis of different stacking arrangement with the numerical simulation (CFD) for the cold room. This study gives a more optimum position for stacking arrangement which tells about the more uniform distribution of airflow and temperature of the air within the cold storehouse. The room temperature is kept at 50C and it will check at different points in the cold room. For this 3D model was established to perform the activity, while the K-e model was used for turbulence flow. This experiment was done to maintain homogeneous the temperature in the cold room. Also, these results convince us that CFD has a better tools to analyze and design cold rooms for effective performance of cold storehouses.
