Abstract

This research is aiming to develop a precooling machine. Forced Air Precooling Room has been designed and constructed with the insulated room of 3.0 x 3.6 x 2.4 m3. The unit consists of a cooling system using R12 refrigerant with cooling load of 1.5 tons, humidity control system, and forced air axial flow fan. Results showed that it took 8 hours to precool 484 kgs. of tangerine from 32°C to 4°C.
