THE LINDE BRITISH REFBKiERATION COMPANY (Limited). The progress made during the past yea* in the application of mechanical refrigeration to industrial purposes appears to nave been very remarkable. Meters Jas J, Niven & Co, Hawke's Bay Foundr)', Napier, Sole Agents in New Zealand for the Linde British KefrSgoration Company (Limited), 35, Queen Viotoria Street, T SS n ,'o< P" informs * Ua that up tc the eari ct 1894, the n^d Cm - neH on their system supph d Dum^r h u Qai 2300. 236 wers Bapphert (3- a ring 1891, of which it U satialactor* t 0 note tnat tQe grea ( er part ara *° r . age in British territory or on board 6hips built in the United Kingdom A noticeable feature is the s : ze of the machines supplied, particuhrly for marina use. Until recently the refrigemted hold« were usually of a comparatively small capacity, bntdurirg last j ear thre installations, each of a capacity of over 100,000 carcases of sheep; have been fitted on board the Perthshire, Buteshire, and Banff* shire, and these vessels have be<n bo strikingly successful, that exaot dnplicatea of thj refrigerating machines have been adopted for the two new vessels for the New Zealand Shipping Company. These installations are by far the largest of any on board ship, and indeed are much abova the average size of a land installation A considerable number of other vessels bavd also beon S ted with Linde m. china , notably the Warrimoo, now ruun ng in the Dew Canadian and Australian service, the Einp ror of Germany b yacht, Hob.' n« zoliem, and several vessels of the British and Colonial Steam Navigation Comoany, ' North German Lloyd 'c, aud eeverjl other 'oading linos. There are now over 250 of ' | theee machines at work on board ships, the majority of them baingof Jarge size. On land there has be» n considerable de» velopmen*, especially in machines intended for the tropics. The company's patented Rystem of compound working is now ve-y largo'y iv use in hot climates with mo3t remarkable succe>a. By this fijstem practically all the difficulties incidental t h_gh_ tempera tur oof wat.r and air ara eliminated, and there is no Jailing eff in the re'ri^eratiDg effeot. Several incidental advantages are attained. An old ether machine conveited to this system is producing, ia India, nearly^ 8 lons of ice p-r ton of coal, and this with an ol(J engine* and low pressure boiler. With a mode a plant throughout, fiom 12 to 14 to as of ice can be obtained per ton of fuel, sod area Jiore with machines of the largest size. '! ho compound Bystein h s elbo been ve>y succes fu ly applied for meat freezing and refrigeration. Three very large plants a'e being tut up in Quensluna One for the Bowen Meat Works, and two for the Queensland Meat Export and , 4genoy Coinpaay, Limitc), Brisbane and Townsvilla. At the later place only a very Binall quantity of cooling water ia available — about 1,1 00 gallons per hour, and that at a temperature of 104deg. Fahr. '1 here aro now several of these machines at work in New Zba'and, and one or two new plantß on their way ,out. In England several large plants have been erected. The Corporation of Manchester hare four large machines of a tolal refrigerating capacity of about 360 tons, at their Elm Street lrarkets. A store of over a quarter of a million cubic febt capacity, is being erected at New Hibernia Wharf, London Bridge, an-1 there is anl othor of half the bm at Hay's Whirf, B.E. 1 All these phnts are on tie Linde pa ton t air J circulation system. Amongst tin new applications of tho ) Linde system during the year, may ba mentioned the experiments in tbnwing 3 frczen meat, so aa to put it on the market in better condition. At the TownßVilla Jleat Works, some f ozen carcasses wera oxposod to tho current of coinj aratively i warm air from a Linde Patent Air Circulation Machine at an increasing tern I pera uro. The meat vas giadoa'ly re. stored to its original condition, and , was I highly epiken of by experts. This air i circulation system lends itself peculiarly . well to the purpose, owing to the absence of any pipos in the rooms and the active 3 circulation of a current of dry lit. This system of thawing will, no doubt, come into extended use.
