IMPROVED REFRIGERATORS/FREEZERS INCORPORATING SOLID-VAPOR SORPTION REACTORS CAPABLE OF HIGH REACTION RATES

摘要

A refrigerator and/or freezer incorporates one or morereactors containing a complex compound of a metal salt and apolar gas adsorbed thereon in which the volumetric expansionof the complex compound is restricted during adsorption, andwhich reactors comprise one or more reaction chambers havinga maximum mean mass diffusion path length of less than about15 mm, and/or a maximum thermal diffusion path length of lessthan 1.5 mm.
