DISTRIBUTION OF THE TEMPERATURE IN ICE COOLED OR MECHANICALLY REFRIGERATED VEHICLES. COMPARISON OF AIR DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS IN A 20' REFRIGERATED CONTAINER--PART II

The tests described in this report were carried out at the Vienna Arsenal Testing Station as well as at the Railway Research Institutes in Rome and Warsaw and are a continuation of the tests described in the preceding report RP 2. This was connected with the aim of checking the possibility of improving the temperature distribution in a mechanically refrigerated container by modifying the air circulation system as well as checking the influence of load conditions.
