Studies on factors affecting the cold storage of polystyro foam based vault in wooden fishing boats

Abstract

The study used a theoretical research method based on the application of heat transfer calculation to evaluate the factors affecting the storage cargo hold on the current wooden fishing boats. The result presents calculated value of heat loss through the structure of the actual cargo hold of the selected wooden-shell fishing boats; calculates the heat loss of the storage cargo hold model; finds out the major causes leading to the temperature rise of the cargo hold; indicates solutions to improve the current storage cargo hold for the enhancement of the quality and efficiency of post-caught seafood preservation.
