Heat exchange pipes in a refrigerator are responsible for transferring heat from the inside of the refrigerator to the outside environment, allowing the refrigerator to maintain a cool temperature inside. The pipes contain a refrigerant that absorbs heat as it evaporates inside the refrigerator and releases it as it condenses outside. This process helps in cooling the interior of the refrigerator.
The cooling agent inside pipes of a refrigerator is typically a refrigerant, such as Freon (R-134a) or HFC-134a. These refrigerants are substances that can absorb heat from the interior of the refrigerator and release it outside, allowing the refrigerator to maintain a cold temperature.
Thermal energy never disappears, but it can be moved from one place to another, which is what a refrigerator does. If you examine your refrigerator you will be able to observe that there are heat exchange tubes (usually on the back) which get hot as they pump heat from the interior to the exterior of the refrigerator.
No, leaving the door of a refrigerator open will not cool a room, but will actually make the room hotter. A refrigerator cools its own interior by pumping heat to the heat exchange coils in the back (some models do not have exposed heat exchange coils, but the sides or back of the refrigerator have coils just underneath them, and they get hot). Those heat exchange coils pump heat into the room. Since the process is not 100% efficient, the amount of heat produced includes a certain amount of waste heat. As a result, pumping heat from one part of the room to another part of the room results in a net increase in heat.
Ammonia gas is compressed until it becomes very hot from the increased pressure. This heated gas flows through the coils behind the refrigerator, which allow excess heat to be released into the surrounding air.
The Einstein refrigerator is a type of absorption refrigerator that doesn't require electricity to function, making it an environmentally friendly cooling solution. It operates based on a heat exchange process using ammonia, water, and hydrogen gas. Its design was patented by Albert Einstein and his former student, Leo Szilard, in 1930.
It keeps heat from outside the refrigerator from getting into the refrigerator.

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.

A refrigerator works by evaporating the coolant inside the refrigerator thereby absorbing heat. The evaporated coolant is pumped outside of the refrigerator and compressed to make it liquefy and give up its heat then returned to be evaporated again.
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.

No, a refrigerator does not change heat into cold. It removes heat from inside the refrigerator and releases it outside, resulting in the cooling effect inside the refrigerator.
I'm not familiar with rumbling in pipes, but the clanking of pipes when the heat starts up is a result of the pipes expanding because of the heat. Heat causes the metal to expand slightly, and the joints creak and clank when the heat makes its way through the pipes.
