Calculation of storage capacity for cold storage
The first step is to calculate the actual available and stored space inside the cold storage: the aisle space that needs to be reserved in the warehouse, the location occupied by internal equipment, and the space that needs to be reserved for internal air circulation.
Next, based on the category of inventory items, the weight of items that can be stored in each cubic meter of space can be queried, and then multiplied to determine how many tons of products can be stored in the cold storage;
500~1000 cubic meters=0.40;
1001-2021 cubic meters=0.50;
2021~10000 cubic meters=0.55;
10001-15000 cubic meters=0.60.
Note: Based on our experience, the actual available capacity is greater than the capacity utilization coefficient defined by the national standard. For example, the utilization coefficient of a cold storage with a capacity of 1000 cubic meters according to the national standard is 0.4. If scientifically and effectively placed, the actual utilization coefficient can generally reach 0.5-0.6.
Unit weight of food in the activity cold storage:
Frozen meat: can store 0.40 tons per cubic meter;
Frozen fish: can store 0.47 tons per cubic meter;
Fresh fruits and vegetables: 0.23 tons can be stored per cubic meter;
Mechanized ice: can store 0.75 tons per cubic meter;
Frozen sheep compartment: capable of storing 0.25 tons per cubic meter:
Bone removal and meat cutting: each cubic meter can store 0.60 tons;
Box packaged frozen poultry: can store 0.55 tons per cubic meter
