Abstract
A well type open top refrigerated display case has a primary air conduit extending around the cabinet and main fans for circulating air through the primary conduit and across the open top of the cabinet in the form of an air curtain. Defrost fans are mounted in the case to draw ambient air from above the refrigerated display case into an upper portion of the primary conduit at a higher pressure than the air pressure in the region of the open top. Defrost control means are provided for energizing the defrost fans at the start of a defrost cycle to propel a portion of the higher pressure ambient air out of the primary conduit through an air opening to collide with an air curtain flowing across the open top, the flow of the air curtain being thereby reversed and caused to flow over the top of and outside the display case. A further portion of ambient air is drawn downwardly by the main fans to flow through the primary conduit and assist in defrosting the coils.
