4079 (RP-850) -- Achieving Successful Cool Storage Projects PDF

Provides an introduction to and overview of the ASHRAE publication Successful Cool Storage Projects: From Planning to Operation. This manual was produced to provide guidance to those who seek to successfully design, install, and operate cool storage systems. It offers recommendations for all phases of a project, from the initial planning stage through ongoing operation of the system. These recommendations emphasise making a commitment to a quality implementation process, defining the requirements that the system will be expected to meet, and producing a complete design based on detailed engineering analysis. The performance of a cool storage system should be tested during the acceptance phase and monitored on an ongoing basis. Finally, owners should provide operating personnel with adequate training and support to thoroughly understand the system and to strive for continuous improvement in its operation. Presents background information on this ASHRAE publication and summarises its key recommendations.
