ABSTRACT
The first major section of the manuscript is an abstract of fewer than 150 words in the language of
the paper. At the end of the manuscript, a direct translation of the abstract should be given in the
other official language of the IIR. Note that the French abstract at the end of this example is not an
exact translation of this abstract as it should be in submitted manuscripts.
1. INTRODUCTION
Each paper should begin with an introduction, which gives some background of the topic, states
briefly the objective of the paper and how it relates to other work in the field.
2. FORMAT
All text of the manuscript must be located within a 170 mm by 254 mm rectangular area on a
white A4 page. An example of the page format is given in Fig. 1. The margins are given in Table 1.
All text should be single spaced, black and in 12-point type. "Times News Roman" or a similar
proportional font should be used. The terminology given in the New International Dictionary of
Refrigeration (IIR, 1975) is recommended. Paragraphs should start on a new line (5 mm indent).
3. HEADINGS FORMAT
The titles of the main sections should be centered, numbered and in bold type capital letters.
There should be blank lines above and below each main section title.

3.1 Sub-Section Headings
Sub-sections headings should be in boldface lower case letters. A blank line should be placed
above, but not below, sub-section headings.
3.1.1 Sub-Sub-Section Headings Sub-sub-sections should be avoided unless absolutely necessary. If
used, they should be left justified, in underlined lower case letters, with the text starting to the right
of the heading. Sub-sub-section headings do not have a blank line above them.
4. FORMAT OF EQUATIONS
A method developed by Cheap and Free (1986) to estimate the cost of attending the Congress is
given as eq. (1). It does not include the cost of travel.
C = F N p + A Nn

5. DISCUSSION
Figures and tables should be incorporated into the main body of the text. It is best to position
them at the top or bottom of a page and to leave one or two blank lines to separate them from the
rest of the text.

UN EXEMPLE DESTINE A ILLUSTRER LES DETAILS DU FORMAT ET DE LA
PRESENTATION D’UN MANUSCRIT
RÉSUMÉ: Un trait continu séparera le manuscrit en anglais du résumé en français. Il sera suivi d’une
ligne blanche puis du titre de la communication en français. Celui-ci sera en lettres capitales non
grasses et aligné sur la gauche de la page. Le résumé en français décrivant le contenu de la
communication sera la traduction de l’«abstract » en tête du document. Une ligne blanche le séparera
du titre et il sera précédé du mot RÉSUMÉ: en lettres capitales non grasses.
