Resumo: Considering the relevance of the consumption of domestic refrigerators in the Brazilian residential sector, representing about 30% of the sectorial consumption, studies of factors that influence this consumption, such as ambient temperature, age of equipment and usage habits, are of great importance to a greater understanding of these effects and, thus, to promote better energy strategies for the country. In this sense, the present study evaluates the impacts of ambient temperature, age of the equipment and habits of use in the consumption of domestic refrigerators, based on theoretical models and laboratory tests. The laboratories assays, adhering to theoretical models, showed that the environment temperature can influence the consumption of refrigerators up to 50% less (taking into account the south region temperature), when comparing to the value that are labeled by PBE/INMETRO. When the usage habits are assayed, it was verified that the consumption of the refrigerator could be increased in up to 53%, depending the frequency of door opening.

En ese sentido, el presente estudio evalúa los impactos de la temperatura ambiente, la antigüedad de los equipos y los hábitos de uso en el consumo de refrigeradores domésticos, a partir de modelos teóricos y pruebas de laboratorio. Los ensayos de laboratorio, apegados a modelos teóricos, demostraron que la temperatura ambiente puede influir en el consumo de los frigoríficos hasta en un 50% menos (considerando la temperatura de la región sur), al comparar con el valor que marca el PBE/INMETRO. Al ensayar los hábitos de uso, se verificó que el consumo de la heladera puede incrementarse hasta en un 53%, dependiendo de la frecuencia de apertura de la puerta.Considerando a relevância do consumo de geladeiras domésticas no setor residencial brasileiro, representando cerca de 30% do consumo setorial, estudos de fatores que influenciam esse consumo, como temperatura ambiente, idade dos equipamentos e hábitos de uso, são de grande importância para uma maior compreensão desses efeitos e, assim, promover melhores estratégias energéticas para o país. Nesse sentido, o presente estudo avalia os impactos da temperatura ambiente, idade dos equipamentos e hábitos de uso no consumo de refrigeradores domésticos, com base em modelos teóricos e testes laboratoriais. Os ensaios laboratoriais, aderindo a modelos teóricos, mostraram que a temperatura ambiente pode influenciar o consumo dos refrigeradores em até 50% menos (levando em consideração a temperatura da região sul), quando comparado ao valor que é rotulado pelo PBE/INMETRO. Quando analisados ​​os hábitos de uso, verificou-se que o consumo da geladeira pode ser aumentado em até 53%, dependendo da frequência de abertura da porta.Research, Society and Development2022-11-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/3773910.33448/rsd-v11i15.37739Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 15; e533111537739Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 15; e533111537739Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 15; e5331115377392525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIenghttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/37739/31264Copyright (c) 2022 Rafael Balbino Cardosohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCardoso, Rafael Balbino2022-11-27T19:56:23Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/37739Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:51:47.689573Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
