One of the greatest advances in refrigeration was the electrification and automatic control of vapor-compression systems. This made possible the reduction in capacity and physical size of refrigerating plants, eliminating the necessity of a full time operator, and took refrigeration from the realm of ice houses and meat packers to the new markets of homes and commercial businesses. Historical information seldom mentions the development of small refrigerating systems, and when it does, it is frequently in error. This is surprising given the now recognized importance of commercial and household refrigerating systems. This paper will shed some new and accurate light on this old field and is the result of considerable research in trade publications, patents, and internal company documents.
