mload = apple loading rate, kg/s (lb/h)
Hresp = sp. rate of heat of respiration, J/kgs (Btu/lbh)
mtot = total mass of apples, kg (lb)
cpA = sp. heat capacity of apples, J/kgC (Btu/lbF)
cpa = specific heat capacity of air, J/kgC (Btu/lbF)
Qa = volume flow rate of infiltration air, m 3/s (cfm)
vsp = specific volume of air, m3/kgDA (ft3/lbDA)
A = surface area of walls, etc., m2 (ft2)
RT = total R-value of walls, etc., m 2C/W (hft2F/Btu)
Ti = air temperature inside, C (F)

Example 1
An apple orchard produces 30,000 bu of apples a
year, and will store of the crop in refrigerated
storage at 31F. Cool to 34F in 5 day; 31F by 10
day.
Loading rate: 2000 bu/day
Ambient design temp: 75F (at loading)

Example 1, revisited
mload = 276,000 lb
(on day 3)
Example 2
Given the apple storage data of example
1,
= 46 lb/bu; cpA = 0.9 Btu/lbF; H = 3.4 Btu/lbday
Example 2
qr = mtot Hresp
mtot = (2000 bu/day 1 day)(46 lb/bu)
mtot = 92,000 lb
qr = (92,000 lb)(3.4 Btu/lbday)
qr = 312,800 Btu/day = 1.1 ton
