Refrigeration Buildings – How Refrigeration is Sustained in Such a Large Space

The uses of refrigeration buildings go beyond just storing food. While this is obviously the first thing that most people think of, you can store non-edibles in a cold environment for a similar reason that you choose to store food in a cold place. Cooler temperatures found in refrigeration buildings serve the purpose of increasing the life of whatever product is inside. This means that any delicate products like important or ancient documents, furniture or automobiles can be placed in a refrigeration building and remain in better condition for longer. The key to the long-lasting effect that cold temperatures have is the climate controlled environment. A certain level of humidity, air flow and temperature is consistently maintained in refrigeration buildings to reduce the wear and tear that regular fluctuations in the atmosphere cause. Of course, probably the most common products to store in a refrigerated environment is food, but when you begin considering entire buildings that are kept cold at all times, you open up the possibilities of storing some of these other items that take up a great deal more space. A chamber as large as a building that is kept at refrigerator temperatures does not function in the same way as air conditioning. Indeed, acquiring the needed temperatures of a refrigerator in so large a space is not like over-working your air conditioning at home until it feels like an icebox in your living room. Refrigeration buildings have an upper crawl space above the visible ceiling panels. This space is maintained under a constant negative pressure to provide an outflow of refrigerated air through the insulation and into the crawlspace. This effectively prevents hot air from flowing into the space of the upper portions of the refrigeration building and keeps damaging moisture precipitation from getting into the insulation. To make refrigeration buildings possible, the walls, ceiling and even the floor must be extremely insulated with vapor barriers. The chamber itself is generally located within a building that has separate outer walls and a roof with the crawlspace located between the roof of the refrigeration chamber and the ceiling of the entire building. Since warm air tends to flow in through the walls and ceiling and cold air flows out at the bottom, the inward flow must be controlled from the top of the refrigeration building to prevent the loss of cold air at the bottom. Innovations are constantly underway to make refrigeration buildings more efficient than ever.
