To improve the adaptability of solar refrigeration systems to different heat sources, a single-double-effect LiBr-H2O ...

Pumpkin seeds are a good source of magnesium, zinc, and iron. But those minerals can be tough to access when the seeds are whole. Grinding the seeds can unlock nutrients that your body might otherwise ...

New techniques and refinements of older ones are needed to reach <1 K for quantum-computing cooling. The final part of this series looks at absorption refrigeration, an alternative to dilution ...

Einstein and Szilard had heated discussions every time they came upon a news story about a family that had died because of a refrigerant leak. At Einstein’s residence in the mid-1920s, Szilard would ...

Shipboard refrigeration significantly advanced in 1878, with the Paraguay successfully transporting frozen carcasses. Modern refrigerated containers maintain precise temperature, humidity, and ...

When we think of chillers, we generally think of the systems that are designed to do the heavy lifting when it comes to cooling large facilities — retail stores, office towers, shopping malls, airport ...

A residential RV refrigerator has many pros and cons. But, if you just had an RV technician tell you that your RV absorption fridge has died, you might consider one. For some families, the ...

Direct discharge of waste heat from internal combustion engines (ICEs) is unfavorable for the efficient and clean fuel utilization. Here, a novel combined absorption-compression cascade refrigeration ...
