Piston Air Cooling Device

Abstract

Many thermal processes are widely used in food production, as a result of which the finished products or semi-finished products need to be cooled. Of the means used for rapid cooling required by production, the use of chilled air is the most acceptable for food products. The currently used methods and devices for air cooling are characterized by a complex design, significant material and energy costs. In order to reduce the mentioned costs, the principle scheme of a simple air cooling device has been worked out, the operation of which is based on the process of cooling the air as a result of adiabatic gas expansion in the cylinder. The device has a simple design and low costs for manufacturing and operation.
