Would water be a suitable working fluid for use in refrigerator?

Water would not be a suitable working fluid for a refrigeration cycle, because its freezing temperature and boiling temperature are too high and too distant from each other.
In the evaporator and in the condensator, you need the working fluid to change its phase.
Also, it would cost a huge compressor to this cycle, because the difference of pressures between the freezing and the boiling points is too high (0ºC: 0.611 kPa; 100ºC: 101.325 kPa)

What are Steam tables used for?
To be general, steam tables are used to determine the properties of fluid. Mostly used on engine, refrigerator and heat pump. It shows the pressure and temperature require for a fluid to reach a certain amount of energy level.
Working peinciple pf hydrualic cylinder?
Hydraulic fluid pressure cylinder with one hand and moving the piston to produce work.
What make petroleum oil suitable as a hydraulic fluid?
Oil transmits power readily because it is minimally compressible, Lubrication abilities and the cooling properties.
How does the thermal efficiency of an ideal Otto Cycle change with the compression ratio of the engine and the specific heat ratio of the working fluid?
The answer is 38.
What advantages has closed loop hydraulic systems over open loop hydraulic systems?
A closed loop system does not permit the escape or waste of the working fluid.open system:A bucket of water with a hole in the bottom that allows a stream of water to fall upon the blades of a turbine and spin it, performing work, can be considered an open system because the water, the working fluid, is not captured and recirculated for re-use but allowed to fall on the ground and drain away.(I have ignored possible return methods such as the earth's weather system, city storm drains, wells and manpower, and the water utility for this example)A better example might be that of a jet aircraft engine. The fuel is burned to create hot pressurized gas, which is the working fluid. The working fluid expands through the engine's turbine, turning it and producing work. The working fluid is not recovered, but thrown away into the air.closed system:The hydraulic system that lifts the bed of a dump truck and the power steering system in a car are both closed systems because in each one the working fluid is returned to a closed tank for re-use after it has been used to perform work.
The Working fluid in an diesel engine?
The working fluid in an internal combustion engine like a diesel would simply be the air it sucks in and passes out in the exhaust.
What is the basic working principle of Refrigerator?
A refrigerator works by compressing and expanding a fluid in order to effect a heat transfer from the medium being cooled to the atmosphere where it is allowed to dissipate. The basic system works as follows: A fluid is compressed which causes it to heat up, this is pumped through a coil which transfers the heat of compression to the atmosphere or other fluid this cools the fluid in the system, the fluid is then expanded through an orifice where it cools even further as a result of the expansion (no heat transfer actually occurs, it's what "causes" the expansion), this then passes through another coil inside the refrigerator where it absorbs heat from the air inside the refrigerator, this heated fluid then passes back to the compressor where it is compressed again causing it to heat up again and the cycle repeats.
Which fluid is used in electrolux refrigerator?
.hydrogen and ammonia
What brake fluid is suitable for a Nissan Silvia?
Any brand fluid is good.
How do refridgerators work?
Refrigerators and air conditioners are heat pumps. They move heat from one place to a different place. They use a working fluid with a low boiling point to do this, e.g. hydrofluorocarbons like HF3C. This working fluid is compressed by a compressor until it liquifies. However it also becomes hot, so the compressed liquid is passed through radiator coils to dispose of the unwanted heat (typically on the back of a refrigerator or the outside part of an air conditioner). The liquid working fluid, now at about room temperature, passes through a small hole as it enters the cooling coils which are at low pressure. The working fluid evaporates inside the cooling coils, reducing their temperature. The gaseous working fluid is then compressed back to liquid by the compressor and the cycle continues.
What are 2 fluid technologies that make the use of air?
Fire extinguisher and a refrigerator
What do you use to find volume that are shapes and 3 dimensional?
If they are mathematical geometric you can use geometry or calculus.If they are not, but are insoluble, you can immerse them in a suitable fluid and measure the volume of the fluid that is displaced. That method will not work for a large salt crystal, though!If they are mathematical geometric you can use geometry or calculus.If they are not, but are insoluble, you can immerse them in a suitable fluid and measure the volume of the fluid that is displaced.

Why when you put washer fluid in your 1995 LeBaron would the wipers star working again?
There is most likely a sensor which moniters the fluid and renders the wipers useless when empty
Why did the brakes stop working on a 1995 Chrysler Concorde?
I would suspect a defective Master Cylinder. Fluid leak.
What is suitable gasket material for thermic fluid?
Non Asbestos metal reinforced
What are the differences between Hydraulics and Pneumatic systems?
