Analysis of the use of aerogel as a thermal insulator in refrigerated containers for storing blood using a photovoltaic system

  • General Medicine

At the beginning of the present, a comparative analysis was carried out between polyurethane as a traditional thermal insulator and aerogel as an insulating material that has excellent thermal properties; the analysis is carried out through a container for storing blood, in which calculations of thermal loads were performed. In addition, a photovoltaic system is proposed to supply energy to the container. As a result, the energy consumption of the system is obtained, using the proposed insulators, resulting in lower consumption when aerogel is used.
