ABSTRACT

Cold storage redesign is a plan to make changes to the structure of the

refrigeration unit in cold storage that aims to produce better benefits or produce
functions that are different from the original design. The research objectives are
to redesign cold storage, identify the engine components used, calculate the cold
storage room storage capacity, calculate the cooling load and the selection of
cooling machine components. The study began from November 2018 until May
2019 which took place at PT. Belitung Berkah Mandiri in Belitung Regency. the
method used is the study of literature, identifying machine components,
calculation methods, selecting components to be used and redesigning cold
storage. The design at PT. Belitung Berkah Mandiri with cold storage room
dimensions of 11 m in length, 7.6 m in width and 3.5 m in height with a volume of
292.6 m3, can accommodate a product of 102.21 tons. By using a compressor
with a cooling capacity of 16.95 kW, a condenser of 80.28 kW, and 6.92 kW with
refrigerant used R-507A. Factors that influence the burden of education are the
product load of 45.78 kW, the transmission load of 6.36 kW, the electric motor
load of 3.10 kW, the infiltration load of 10.61 kW, the lamp load of 2 kW, the
workload of 2.35 kW with using a safety factor of 10%, the cold storage cold load
of 6,747 kW is obtained. Where the evaporation temperature is -15 ̊ C, and
condensation is 38 C ̊ , the ideal COP value is 2.20, the actual COP is 4.86 with an
efficiency of 45.26%. in the selection of engine components to be used according
to the needs, a refrigerant with a capacity of 6.7 kW Guntner, a condenser of
Guntner with a cooling capacity of 9.8 kW and a compressor brand Bitzer with a
cooling capacity of 7.78 kW
