Hello again,

My refrigeration project is coming along but I need some guidance on the best way to mathematically model the size of the condenser, evaporator and compressor.

I originally thought that using the thermal load that I needed to move out of the milk ( roughly 80W), along with the type of condenser cooling I would plan on using (forced air), would be enough to determine the condenser and evaporator sizes. I have not found that to be true so far.

Are there any obvious resources that I have missed? I would really like to calculate everything mathematically and circumvent previously obtained models but I would like to see the models for comparison to my numbers.

Thanks again for your help. I look forward to the comments.
