Definitions

  • Defrost_counter ⁇ 0 t ⁇ T RC - T RC evap
  • T RC is the temperature measured in the cavity
  • T RC evap is the temperature of the evaporator.
  • Defrost_counter is measured in degree Celsius multiplied by second.
  • the need of a defrost cycle is assessed in close loop, basing on frost formation estimation.
  • the differences compared to standard open loop method can be less significant, especially in case of no frost appliances, where defrost already occurs every 72 hours. Differences compared with actual solutions are more evident in case of direct cooled evaporators, where defrost is usually performed every single compressor ON/OFF cycle, particularly when used in fresh food compartment.
