Abstract

The mathematical models of compressor, evaporator and condenser in a refrigerated container’s refrigeration unit were established, which were used to form the whole system model for steady-state simulation according to the coupling relationship among them. The full-load performance of the refrigeration system was firstly deployed using the system model programmed in the MATLAB software. And the experimental performance tests were secondly carried out using a marine refrigerated container test rig. The errors between simulation results and experimental results are within 10%. Therefore the model has good simulation accuracy and could be used for the future energy-saving analysis of the marine refrigerated container.
