As far as I can tell, NOBODY EVER was able to replicate the fridge.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_refrigerator

The design of Einstein's fridge seems to be false, as it did not match 
the description of absorption fridges in that wikipedia page.

Einstein's fridge used three substances: water, ammonia und butane.

The actually refridgerant was ammonia, while butane was meant as low 
boiling innert liquid.

Now household friges use hydrogen gas for what Einstein wanted to use 
butane for. But the butane was liquid, while in these fridges the 
hydrogen is a gas:

Quote:

"The ammonia (gas) and hydrogen (gas) mixture flows through a pipe from 
the evaporator into the absorber. In the absorber, this mixture of gases 
contacts water (technically, a weak solution of ammonia in water). The 
gaseous ammonia dissolves in the water, while the hydrogen, which 
doesn't, collects at the top of the absorber, leaving the now-strong 
ammonia-and-water solution at the bottom. The hydrogen is now separate 
while the ammonia is now dissolved in the water."

Mostly used were such fridges in boats and mobile homes, which also have 
limitted acces to power lines.

I actually meant 'Drossel' (in German), but was too lazy to search for 
an appropriate translation. What I found was 'Ventury-Düse'.

I have heard, this device by Einstein and Szillard was ONLY used in fast 
breeding reactors.

No other use is known so far.

No, they were the inventors.

'Someone paid' means a company, who paid Einstein and Szillard for their 
patent.

But the payment does not necessarily need to exchange the value of the 
patent. Also entirely worthless items can be 'sold', if the reason for a 
transfer of money shall be kept secret.

As Leo Szillar was the inventor of the atomic bomb, too, a payment for 
the fridge could possibly be a hidden payment for the bomb.

No, the payment was in the form of regualr payments for a long period of 
time, not in the form of a single price.

That patent was therefore 'rented', not sold.

Sure. But usually you see the payment from the perspective of the 
tenent/buyer.

So, what was the motive of the buyer?

It is almost entirely impossible to prove statements containing 
'impossible'.

'unknown' is similarily impossible to prove, because we can know only 
known things.

...

Sure.

But butane was not the only substance possible in that patent and 
introduced only as an example for an innert fluid.

If you scale the temperature range up by far, you could think about 
gassous forms of metal, too.

That would fit far better to 'fast breeding reactor'.
