Abstract

The paper presents conditions and procedures for certification of transport equipment regulated by the ATP Agreement. A complete procedure for measuring the overall coefficient of heat transfer K of the insulated transport body is explained in detail. Presented is the arrangement for test procedure with a description of equipment used for measurement of coefficient K in all stages of the procedure – from the testing preparation to the measurement data analysis and calculation of coefficient K. Given is an overview of the achieved results of measurement and the prepared final documents on certification of tested insulated transport body of mechanically refrigerated equipment.
