Planned Energy Labelling For Transport Refrigerationsystems Based On The Data Of The German Federal environment Agency (uba)

摘要

The basic examinations into energy labelling of refrigerated vehicles has shown that FRIGOBLOCK alternator drive technology results in 50 to 60% less fuel consumption than even the most efficient of the refrigeration systems driven by an integrated diesel engine. This enormous fuel saving of up to 60% is made possible by the efficiency of more than 90% of the FRIGOBLOCK alternator and of up to 50% for the increased power requirements of modern vehicle diesel engines. In contrast, conventional industrial diesel engines used in transport refrigeration systems only operate at a maximum of 10 to 30% capacity utilisation depending on load and application temperatures. This is in fact the most unfavourable efficiency range for diesel engines, giving a total efficiency of, on average, only 20%.
