Abstract

An enclosed system of piping partly filled with liquid ammonia was found to transfer useful quantities of heat to a bunker containing a solid refrigerant (ice), with temperature gradients of 30 to 50° F. without the use of forced circulation. The system could be adapted to reduce spatial temperature variations and provide thermostatic control where solid refrigerants are used, as in railway refrigerator cars. Such arrangements are discussed briefly.
