Synopsis
Excerpt from Refrigerating and Ice-Making Machinery: A Descriptive Treatise for Use of Persons Employing Refrigerating and Ice-Making Installations, and Others
The subject of the present volume is one which ought to be of interest to a very large number of readers, inasmuch as machinery and apparatus for the production of cold by artificial means, in addition to its more legitimate uses for ice-making and the preservation of provisions of a perishable nature, is now employed, and plays an important part, in many industries and manufactures. Notwithstanding this, however, with the exception of the scattered information comprised in the few interesting and valuable papers which have been contributed from time to time to the engineering and other institutions and societies, and of the able descriptive articles which have appeared in the leading technical journals at more or less wide intervals, but little has been written treating generally of machinery of this class.
The author is, therefore, led to hope that a treatise dealing with the machinery and apparatus used in the principal systems of refrigerating and ice-making will prove not unuseful both to those employing, or intending to employ, and to those in charge of such machinery and apparatus, and to others who, whilst desiring to obtain information upon the subject, have neither the opportunity nor the facility for attaining it from the sources above referred to.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the historical development of refrigeration and ice-making machinery and processes, from early scientific and engineering principles to more modern and advanced applications. The evolution of the field is examined across five classifications of methods: the utilization of a solid's rapid dissolution, the abstraction of heat through the evaporation of a portion of the liquid to be cooled, the abstraction of heat through the evaporation of a separate volatile refrigerating agent, the abstraction of heat through a similar process with the addition of heat, and the abstraction of heat by compressing air or other gas. The author delves into topics like latent heat, specific heat, mechanical equivalent of heat, and the properties of various refrigerating agents. This book serves as a valuable resource for those seeking an overview of refrigeration technology and its wide-ranging applications, and will prove particularly useful to engineers and professionals in the field of refrigeration, as well as for researchers interested in the historical development of important technologies. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330229651_0
