Quick Freeze. A money-saving method of cutting the time for cooling refrigerated trucks from two or three hours down to two or three minutes has been developed by Linde Co. Liquid nitrogen (temperature: 320°F. below zero) is sprayed from pipes in the ceiling of the truck, instantly vaporizes and drives warm air out. The principle has been known for some time, but no workable automatic spraying system had been developed. The system will be in use by next summer...
