Refrigerators has made a significant change in our society today. They went through a lot of tests and prototypes to achieve the perfectness of keeping our food fresh. We’ll be seeing the amount of changes the refrigerators have gone through and how it keeps our food fresh.
Somewhere around 500 BC, a type of refrigerator was called the Yakhchals and they were seen in Persia. The Yakhchals were a type of refrigerator which in time was an evaporated cooler. Now we are gonna skip a lot of time because this was the time when artificial refrigerators were invented. In 1756, William Cullen showed an example in public of artificial refrigeration. Now another type of refrigerator was invented. But this time it was different because it was the first closed loop cooling unit. The inventor is Oliver Evans and the project is derived from the heat pump cycle in refrigerators. Next another design or different system of refrigerators came in. In 1856, James Harrison created the Reverse-Rankine system. In the time of his new system, he also created a more modern day of ice houses. While that is impressive, in 1859, Ferdinand CarrĂ© created the first absorption refrigeration system which required aqua ammonia. It was mainly used for fertilizing. Now it may seem like a lot of designs of refrigerators but there is still more to go. Another example is in 1915 when Alfred Mellowes created the first refrigerator for home use. Now it’s getting more modern. In 1926, the General Electric Company put on selling the sealed compressor refrigeration system. Basically making it leak-proof.
As you can see from the many designs of refrigerators, it has made a long journey into society which makes a remarkable change in history and society. When you start off with something like keeping our food fresh, it’s hard at first. But when you make changes and start to improve on the project, those little changes make a huge change in projects. That’s why improving is crucial in everything you do.
