Where does the energy come from which makes the pipes at the back of a fridge warm?

The energy comes from the heat taken from the heat/energy inside of the refrigerator/fridge. A fridge takes heat energy from inside the fridge and dumps it outside the fridge into the the pipes on the back of the fridge and into the room.


Where does the energy come from to warm the pipes at the back of the fridge?

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.


Why is the back of your fridge black?

A fridge cools things by removing heat energy from the inside of the fridge. This makes it cold inside the fridge. The heat energy that is removed ends up at the back of the fridge. The back of the fridge is often painted black because that makes it a good emitter of heat energy. The fridge may also have a metal cooling grille, also painted black, to help it loose heat to the air. The radiators in our house could be black and it would help them to emit heat into our rooms. In practice people do not want black radiators so they are generally white. the shape of a radiator is designed to give up its heat to air rising up through it.


Why is the back of a refrigerator black?

Simply put a refrigerator works by moving heat from inside the fridge to outside the fridge. The grille at the back of a fridge is the place, where, just as with a car's radiator the unwanted heat is released. And black happens to be the color that is the best when it comes to releasing (and absorbing) energy.


What type of energy does the fridge give off?

A fridge gives off heat energy as it extracts heat from inside and releases it outside to maintain a cool temperature inside. This heat is dissipated by the fridge's coils, usually located at the back or bottom of the appliance.

Where has the energy come from to warm the pipes at the back of a fridge?

A significant portion of it is the heat that was removed from the groceries inside.

To emit heat


Is it normal for your refrigerator to be burning water inside of it?

fridges work by removing heat from one place to another using ammonia based fluid pumped if your refering to water u put in the fridge and its heating up most likely you have a two way fridge hot and cold in which case switch it to cold if your referring to the pipes at the back of the fridge being hot its normal as it taking away the heat to make the fridge cold so ifthe pipes at the back of your fridge is hot its working fine as long as the fridge keeps things cool

Why is frost bad for a freezer?

The problem is, because it's a good insulator. The way a freezer works, you have a load of pipes at the back, you compress a gas in the pump, that makes it hot and loses the heat out of the back of the fridge or freezer. It then pipes this condensed, compressed room temperature gas into the freezer, it then expands, evaporates, gets cold, and so the coldest bits of the fridge are where this expanded gas is flowing through. The problem is that wants to get the heat from the fridge, but if you've got a great big layer of ice, that's going to insulate the cooling part of the fridge from the contents of your fridge, so the fridge is going to be warmer, which means that the actual fridge-freezer is going to work harder to keep cold, which means it gets even colder, it means you get more ice that will build up so it'll go horribly wrong until the fridge just conks out.


Which metal part causes air pollution?

Usually the pipes that the smoke comes out of at the back of the car. Or if it is a semi-truck, the pipes that the smoke comes out of are at the top of the place where the driver sits.

Why is the back of a refrigerator painted black?

The back of a refrigerator is often painted black to help with heat absorption and dissipation. The black color helps the refrigerator's coils release heat more efficiently, aiding in the cooling process.
