Calculation Methodology of Defrosting Room for Rail Cars

Abstract:

Enhancement of efficiency of defrosting process of freight cars is a very important problem in any of countries characterized by severe or temperate climates. In the present article, the calculation methodology of air parameters, that is of energy carrier, in defrosting room is presented. Heat between the particular media is transferred only by convection. Changes of volumetric flow rates and heat fluxes in characteristic points of defrosting room in the function of volumetric flow rate of supplied air are presented in the work.
