| Popis: |
A significant proportion of the flow of goods is transported and handled temperature-controlled. Some of these transports are carried out with an active temperature control, while other goods are transported within the scope of a passive temperature control. The project SMITH focuses the issue of passive temperature control using the example of an aluminium producer in Germany which organizes transports of liquid aluminium. The liquid aluminium and the corresponding crucibles need to be heated in a way, which guarantees the customer a delivery in a proper processing temperature. Setting the temperature is currently based on experience. The aim of SMITH is to improve the energy efficiency of passive temperature-controlled logistics. The software predicts the optimum temperature based on factors such as weather conditions. A transfer of the solution to other temperature-controlled transports enables huge energy and CO2 savings and is an important contribution of the logistics industry to climate protection. |
