Diffusion absorption refrigeration systems are an advanced class of cooling technologies that operate solely on thermal energy. Unlike conventional refrigeration systems that rely on mechanical ...

Membrane-based absorption refrigeration systems represent a cutting-edge approach to utilising thermal energy for cooling through enhanced heat and mass transfer. By incorporating specialised porous ...

Researchers in Singapore have built a refrigerator that's just three atoms big. This quantum fridge won't keep your drinks cold, but it's cool proof of physics operating at the smallest scales.

In an attempt to improve a design that was potentially dangerous, physicists Leó Szilárd and Albert Einstein patented what has become known as the Einstein refrigerator. In 1922, Swedish engineering ...
