How much energy does it require to keep the ice steady at -8 degrees celsius continuously?
We have an ice rink and these are the values:
- indoor climate has a constant temperature of +10 degree celsius
- It took 17669880 KJ to cool it down from +10 celcius to -8 celcius.
- Dimensions 60m length x 30m width x 2.5cm thickness, which is 45 cubic meter of ice
How much energy is needed to keep the rink cooled down at -8 degrees per hour?
