Refrigeration without Electricity

  • Опубліковано 4 гру 2017
  • Researchers at the University of Dayton are working on a refrigerator that can cool without electricity. The project was started by students in UD’s ETHOS program. The solar-thermal adsorptive refrigeration (STAR) system uses inexpensive, non-toxic and environmentally-friendly materials to provide cooling for vaccines.
    The research is supported by the STEM Catalyst Initiative which was created to invest in and support faculty and student STEM research at the University of Dayton.

Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, "This is what we were provided with before." And it is given to them in likeness.

And NO, this is not meant to replace my central air, but to help curve it from running all day during the day.

Why would you use ethanol when ammonia absorption reaches colder temperatures and the units can be made out of steel piping or cast iron which is available worldwide as is ammonia... Which in a pinch could be refined from piss either human or agricultural.
    I'm not knocking that it would work for refrigeration but it seems if you're going to go through all the trouble it would make more sense to make something more effective and efficient. An oval wheel will roll... There's a reason why we use a round wheel though 🤷.

      This one is based on ADsorption, and Einstein and Leo Szilard's use ABsorption process. BTW ABsorption refrigeration was not invented by Einstein and Szilard neither (in 1930). It was invented by Ferdinand Carré in 1858. It was also improved in 1922 by Baltzar von Platen and Carl Munters.
      Anyway, the point is to move forward, not to debate whose idea it was in the first place.
      Absorption fridges are available in the market place, often for Recreational Vehicules, or when a heat waste is available (in turbine exhausts or industrial processes, or from solar plants for example).
      The novelty here is to use the (almost free and abundantly available) energy from the Sun, in India, to power small refrigeration systems in remote places without stable electricity. This version could be a huge game changer for millions of people (in India, and Africa as well).

      I'm glad you shared your knowledge about William Cullen, I can confirm this information is present on Wikipedia as well "'In 1748 while in Glasgow, Cullen invented the basis for modern refrigeration, although is not credited with a usable application" on his page, though not on the refrigeration page, which could provide more insights to readers. You have a point, I don't get your sarcasm, I think this information deserves to be on refrigeration, adsorption and absorption pages as well.
