Which of the following cools the air in a household refrigerator?
The compressor is the part of a household refrigerator that cools the air. The function is absorption but the compressor creates the absorption.
What would happen to a blown up balloon if it is placed in a refrigerator?
When the air inside a balloon cools, it will also contract, therefore the balloon will partially deflate.
What would happen to a blown-up party balloon if it is placed in a refrigerator?
When the air inside a balloon cools, it will also contract, therefore the balloon will partially deflate.
How is the air cooled in a household refrigerator?
It goes through the pipes
What is the air pressure inside a cyclone?
the air in the cyclone rises as the air rises it cools
Why should a refrigerator not be overpacked?
A fridge operate more efficiently when the cold air that cools the food can move around
What causes the cooling effect in a refrigerator?
Freon is run through copper tubing in a refrigerator chilling the air inside the insulated box that makes up a refrigerator The temperature drops, chilling anything inside.
Explain the construction of an air conditioner?
it compresses a gas (freon or something like it), which heats the gas. Then it cools the gas (radiator grill on the outside) Then it lets the gas expand ... which cools the gas ... which cools the inside air.
Why cant opening the door of the refrigerator will cool the kitchen?
If you have noticed the warm air blowing from behind your refrigerator, that is the heat that was in the air that is inside your refrigerator. If you leave the door open the air around the refrigerator will briefly feel cold, but it will warm back up and the food in the refrigerator will go bad.
How does a beer cooler work?
The evaporating air cools the pot on the inside.
Why cant a refrigerator be used as an air conditioner as the working principle of both is same?
A refrigerator is designed to pump heat from the inside of the refrigerator to the outside of the refrigerator. Since the refrigerator is inside a room (usually a kitchen) the heat does not escape from the house that it is in. If you examine your refrigerator you will find that there is a heat exchange unit, usually in the back (although it can be on the sides) which gets hot. So if you leave the door open, any cool air that escapes into the room is more than balanced by the heat coming from the heat exchange unit in the back. An air conditioner, in comparison, is designed to pump heat from the inside of a house to the outside of a house. If, however, you were able to mount your refrigerator inside a window frame (which would be extremely difficult) and make a reasonably air tight seal, you could then leave the refrigerator door open, and use the refrigerator as an air conditioner. It would be a lot easier to just get an actual air conditioner, however.
What is the difference between a refrigerator and a heat pump?
A refrigerator takes heat out of a small compartment by expanding a gas and utilising the laws of thermodynamics; a heat pump pumps warm air, heated by the sun, from a roof cavity into rooms in a houseto warm them and pumping the cold air into the roof to be heated.
