Don't know a thing about propane refrigerators.

I'm assuming that they work on a similar principle to the kerosene
refrigerators I recall from a few decades back; a neighbor in a rural area
of UK with no electric supply had one. Some of those used ammonia as the
refrigerant, but maybe the propane ones now use Freon.

IIRC, the heat of the flame raises the pressure of the refrigerant just as
the compressor does in an electric refrigerator.

No, completely different principle.
