Einstein refrigerator
Main article: Einstein refrigerator The Einstein refrigerator is an absorption refrigerator which has no moving parts and requires only a heat source to operate. It was jointly invented in 1926 by Albert Einstein and his former student Leó Szilárd and patented in the US on November 11, 1930 . This is an alternative design from the original invention of 1922 by the SwedishIn 1926, Einstein and his former student Leó Szilárd Leó Szilárd was a Hungarian physicist who conceived the nuclear chain reaction and worked on the Manhattan Project. He was born in Budapest under the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and died in La Jolla, California co-invented (and in 1930, patented) the Einstein refrigerator The Einstein refrigerator is an absorption refrigerator which has no moving parts and requires only a heat source to operate.

This Absorption refrigerator The absorption refrigerator is a refrigerator that uses a heat source to provide the energy needed to drive the cooling system. Absorption refrigerators are a popular alternative to regular compressor refrigerators where electricity is unreliable, costly, or unavailable, where noise from the compressor is problematic, or where surplus heat is was then revolutionary for having no moving parts and using only heat as an input.[64] On 11 November 1930, U.S. Patent 1,781,541 was awarded to Albert Einstein and Leó Szilárd for the refrigerator. Although the refrigerator was not immediately put into commercial production, the most promising of their patents being quickly bought up by the Swedish company Electrolux to protect its refrigeration technology from competition.[65]
