dc.description.abstractRefrigeration is one of the key elements for food preservation. With global temperatures increasing due to global warming, the efficiency in refrigerated storage systems must be improved. One of the problems that is yet to be solved in these systems is the efficient and accurate removal of the frost formed on the heat exchanger surface. In previous works, a low-cost resistive sensor has been developed to detect frost formation for accurate removal. This paper shows the results of an experimental study carried out to increase the accuracy, by placing different configurations of a fabric medium in between the sensor electrodes.pt_PT
