Abstract

Calculations combined with documented experience predict and compare direct energy consumption for the two onboard flooded-tank refrigeration systems in current use. These are RSW (refrigerated seawater) which uses mechanical refrigeration, and CSW (chilled seawater) which uses ice brought from shore. RSW is found to consume energy at roughly half the rate predicted for CSW; seawater temperature has a major influence on results.
