This method proved to be difficult, dangerous, and certainly did not resemble anything that could be du plicated on a commercial scale. Despite the difficult es of harvesting iee, Frederic Tudor thought that he could capitalize on this new commo dity by harvesting ice in New England and shipping it to the Caribbean islands as well as the southern states. In the beginning, Tudor lost, thousands of dollars, but eventually tuned a profit as he constructed iechouses in Chale ston, Virginia and in the Cuban port town of Havana. These ieehouses as well as better insulated ships helped reduce ice wastage from 66% to 8%. This efficiency gain influen ced Tudor to expand his ice market to othe r towns with icehouses such as New Orleans a nd Savannah, ‘This ice market further expan ded as harvesting ice became faster and cheap er after one of Tudord€™s suppliers, Nathaniel Wyet, invented a horse-drawn ice cutter in 1825, This invention as well as Tudorde™s s uccess inspired others to get involved in the ice trade andthe ice industry grew. Tee became a mass-m arket commodity by the early 1830s with the price of ice dropping from six cents per pound to half ofa cent per pound, In New York City, ice consumption inereased from 12,000 tons in 1843 t0 100,000 tons in 1 856, Bostonie™s consumption leap from 6,00 0 tons fo 85,000 tons during that same period, Ice harvesting created a @@weooling eultured€ as majority of people used ice and iceboxes to store their dairy products, fish, mest, and ev en fruits and vegetables. These early cold storage practices paved the way for many Ame ticans to accept the reftigeation technology that would soon take over the county. CONCEPT CONCEPT OF REFRIGERATIO! sation is pro cess in which work is dane to move heat from one location to another.

The idea of preserving food dates back to the ancien t Roman and Chinese empires. However, refrigeration technology has rapidly evolved in the ast century, from ice harvesting to temperatu der to avoid food spoilage, refrigeration plays a important roe in day to day lie, similarly, Air conditioning is also an important technological system to prevent the human from the hot atmosphere during tolled ral eats, In CLASSIFICATION OF REFRIGERATION SYSTEM ‘Types of Refrigeration 4€8.
