Summary

WITH THE EXHAUSTS FROM COMBUSTION ENGINES, TECHNOLOGICALLY USE FUL ENERGY STREAMS ARE < PUMPED > INTO THE ATMOSPHERE IN PROHIBITIVELY LARGE AMOUNTS. THIS IS ALSO APPLICABLE TO MACHINE-REFRIGERATED CARS, CONTAINERS AND REFRIGERATED VESSELS OR CONTAINER-SHIPS WHERE COMBUSTION ENGINES ARE USED AS PRIME MOVERS FOR REFRIGERATION. IN VIEW OF THE GREAT EXTENT OF TODAY'S REFRIGERATED GOODS HAULAGE CONSIDERABLE RESOURCES OF SECONDARY ENERGY ARE NOT HARNESSED YET. USING A COUPLED RANKINE COLD STEAM-REFRIGERATOR PROCESS DESCRIBED AND ASSESSED THERMODYNAMICALLY, EXHAUST GASES COULD BE CONVERTED TO < COLD > OF RELATIVELY HIGH EFFICIENCIES WITH THE RIGHT CHOICE OF REFRIGERANT.
