Refrigerated food pan cooling device
A refrigerated food pan cooling device includes a food pan receiving well and a cooling system, wherein the cooling system includes a refrigeration system with a compressor, a condenser, a metering device and an evaporator. The evaporator includes at least one first refrigerant line downstream of the metering device and upstream of the compressor. The first refrigerant line runs along an external surface of at least one of the well walls. The condenser is configured as a hot wall condenser, that lacks any fan or blower, wherein the hot wall condenser includes at least one second refrigerant line downstream of the compressor and upstream of the metering device. The second refrigerant line runs, at least partly, along an internal surface of at least the first exterior sidewall to transfer heat through the first exterior sidewall to ambient air.
Augmented Phase Chiller System for Component and Compartment Chilling
The chilling system provides cooling to components housed within a container by pumping propylene-glycol-water-mixture (PGWM) or equivalent through heat exchange assemblies and thermal transfer vessels. The thermal transfer vessels are filled with a paraffin-based phase change material (PCM) or equivalent solution for realizing phase change of the PCMs at selected melting points. The heat exchange assemblies are provided with thermal electric coolers for cooling the PGWM as it travels through the heat exchangers. The cooled PGWM is directed into and through a target cooling manifold of a target heat exchanger assembly to realize cooling the housed components. The system operates on direct current at under 500 watts of power and requires no Freon-type refrigerants or compressors. A microcontroller controls switches for realizing desired flow paths of the PGWM upon receiving phase change and temperature information from sensors.
