Excerpt from Lining and Loading Cars of Potatoes for Protection From Cold
At the same time, the warm air is kept from the floor of the car and potatoes there may freeze. Figure 1 indicates the usual places where the circulation is blocked. It is a comparatively simple matter for a heater to furnish enough warm air to protect a car of potatoes from freezing even in severe weather, but it seems to be difficult to have the car lining built and kept in such condition that this warm air can get down to the floor where it is needed.
To accomplish this, a complete air passage the full width of the car must be kept open around the load, as shown by the cover illustration. The following points, therefore, should be borne in mind: (1) The potatoes must not be loaded close enough to the ceiling to block any part of this circulation; (2) there must be a large, unobstructed opening for the warm air to pass down to the floor after it has spread the length of the ceiling from the heater; and (3) the false floor must be so constructed that this warm air can pass under it at all points back to the heater again. This circulation is slow and labored and is limited by the smallest opening in the space provided around the load, just as the effectiveness of a chimney is limited by the narrowest place in the flue. If the chimney flue is partially blocked by soot, the fire below will not draw well. Likewise, if the space around the load is partially blocked by the potatoes themselves, or by boards, shavings, or straw, the warm air will not circulate as it should. Shippers cannot make this point too clear to the employees who line and load their cars.
