EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts Harrison's Ice Making Machine, a groundbreaking invention designed by Mr. Harrison of Geelong, Australia, in 1858. The machine, built by Mr. Siebe of Denmark Street, Soho, London, was a prototype reportedly capable of producing an impressive 5,000 to 6,000 pounds of ice per day. At a time when ice was primarily obtained through natural sources or expensive imports, this machine represented a significant advancement in refrigeration technology. The machine utilized evaporation of ether in a vacuum to produce refrigeration, making it an early example of vapor-compression refrigeration. The process was driven by a powerful ten-horsepower steam engine, making it a formidable piece of machinery for its time. This engraving offers a glimpse into the history of refrigeration technology and the innovative spirit of the 19th century. While the commercial use of such large-scale ice-making machines would come later, this prototype marked an important step in the development of more efficient and sustainable methods for producing ice. The machine's design and construction were a collaboration between Harrison and Siebe, with Harrison providing the innovative concept and Siebe bringing his expertise in engineering and manufacturing to bring the machine to life. The machine's impressive capabilities made headlines in both Australia and Europe, marking a significant moment in the history of refrigeration technology.
