No, although the short-term effect would be for the refrigerator air / freezer air to mix with and cool the air in the room.The function of refrigerator is a heat exchanger; it removes heat from the inside of the fridge and pumps it to the outside of the fridge.If we open the refrigerator door, it will remove the heat from the air that mixes inside, but then will exchange the heat back into the kitchen. That's why the room can't be cooled for a long period. In fact, due to waste heat, the room could become warmer once the refrigerator contents have reached room temperature.
Keeping Things Cool with Refigerator Repair?
If you have a refrigerator that needs to be repaired, look at the simple things before getting a new refrigerator. Make sure there is enough coolant in the system to keep it cold and from not freezing up. If the freezer will not keep things frozen, take everything out clean the inside as well as the door of the freezer. Then set the temperature to the middle. In the summer condensation builds up on the door and will not keep the freezer cold.
Is it possible to cool down a room on a hot summer day by leaving the refrigerator door open?
Assuming I've interpreted your question correctly, the answer is No: A refrigerator is a heat exchanger; it removes heat from the inside and pumps it to the outside -- to plates on the rear of the fridge. If you feel the back of a refrigerator, it will be warm. You may think that if you separated the plates from the "cooling" part of the fridge and put them outside the room, it would cool the room. And in that case, you'd be correct -- that's how air conditioning works.
