Abstract
Refrigeration is a major consumer of energy in the UK, accounting for electricity worth some Pound 2 billion/year (1991 prices), or about 17% of the total UK electricity use. In industry, refrigeration consumes approximately 7.5 x 10{sup 9} kWh which costs around Pound 300 million/year. In some sectors, particularly food, drink and chemicals, it represents a significant proportion of overall site energy costs. This guide is aimed at designers and purchasers of refrigeration plant in the industrial sector. It can help to achieve significant improvements in efficiency, more effective use of capital, better refrigeration, and improved environmental performance. Operation and maintenance of refrigeration systems is covered in Good Practice Guide No. 42, which contains some introductory information which may be particularly useful to persons who are unfamiliar with the basic principles of efficient operation, a knowledge of which is essential if efficient design is to be achieved.
