Compete Spanish frigorifíco which saves energy

It is the International competition of design James Dyson and the jury has announced the winning participant that concursará this 2010 representing Spain. Sogde is the name of the winning project and design an ecological refrigerator which contributes to energy saving.



Sodge is the name of the project with which a cold original prevents losing energy has no traditional hinged door, and replaces it with elastic neoprene sheet is designed. In this way, it is possible to take off the door on the side closest to the feed you want to catch without need to open the door completely.

As the foil is transparent allows us to visualize the desired food of opening the door and thus prevents loss of heat. In addition, the body of the refrigerator is made "Corian", an ecological material consisting of two-thirds of natural minerals and part of acrylic high resistance. Thus, the body of the refrigerator and neoprene sheet snap perfect thanks to a magnetic strip prevents loss of cold.

Finally, the ecological refrigeration original, and that helps to save energy, is intended to be done to our need to measure because it can be designed using different modules.

This innovative project called "Sodge" has been designed by Francesc Roig, engineer of the CEU-Cardenal Herrera University of Valencia and will compete with other 17 projects in different countries to win the International competition of design James Dyson.The result of this contest will be announced this 5 October and the prize will be £ 10,000 and £ 10,000 to the winning student for University or winning participating school.

Finally, note that Spanish national jury participate in Joaquín Ezcurra from the school official engineers industrial of Madrid (COIIM) David Bravo, director of the Gadget magazine.

Erenovable from both the Blog green, we look forward to the winner of this contest is the engineer of the Valencian University who designed the refrigerator that saves energy.
