Abstract

The advisability of thermal energy accumulators’ utilization in food industry is presented and substanti-ated in the article. The time graphs of energy consumption for some plants along with the plots of electri-cal energy payments within a single- triple-zones tariffs as characteristic for the “Danone” diary plant in the city of Kherson have been analyzed. The results obtained have proved that the effectiveness of cold accumulators application is greatly determined not only by the available time of ice accumulation, but also by the achievable speed of the ice melting, which, eventually, determines the amount of ice which is necessary to generate during the accumulator “charge” period. The proposed considerations will be used at the developing of an ice accumulator design calculations methodology.
