Refrigerators

Try letting it freeze, not opening the door for hours, and when it's completely cold, quickly load it. Don't open the door again for a few more hours. A freezer works more efficiently when it's full, but it needs to be at optimum cold before it's loaded. If this doesn't work you need first to have someone check the doorseals and if they're okay, check for gas leakage. This is important because if your freezer is faulty, it's costing you a lot in electricity. It'd probably be cheaper to buy an energy-effecient freezer if yours proves to be faulty.

Yes.

Large LCD TV uses about 400W (plasma TVs use more), playstation uses up to 150W depending on what its doing, refrigerators vary pretty widely but unlikely to be more that 200.

there are two type of heat exchanger in absorption refrigeration, first is liquid heat exchanger and other is gas heat exchanger.both heat exchanger function is same, to transfer heat (hot medium to cold medium) without violate second newton law of thermodynamics.

liquids heat exchanger is between boiler and absorber vessel mean while gas heat exchanger between evaporator and absorber.

Most of the time the answer is

It depends upon whether the refrigerator was part of the rental contract. If the renter brought their own refrigerator, then it is up to the tenant to replace or repair. If the rental already have a refrigerator in place, then it is the landlords job to replace or repair.

It Freezes ! :P

50 - 60 watts

Mine uses 500 watts, but only for about two minutes each hour.

Using the right triangle created, you can find the height of the refrigerator by using the equation tan 65(degrees) = x/3. I will leave the actual calculations up to you!

Fluorescent don't like the cold, they are slow to come on. I think they have come up with some for outdoor use but a refrigerator bulb is so small I don't think I would bother.

Additionally, the lifetime of a CFL bulb is diminished each time the bulb is turned on, much more so than an incandescent bulb, and this may be a reason to avoid CFLs where the refrigerator door is opened frequently turning on the light each time.

For every joule of electricity we put into a refrigerator we can extract up to 25 joules of heat from its contents.

Yes but leave the door open to prevent mould build-up

As a general rule white and blue-green molds on foods are OK to eat even if you leave the mold on the food and will not harm you in any way (but will change the flavor of the food, which you may or may not like). However molds of other colors (e.g. red, orange, black) are usually toxic and could make you sick or sometimes kill you! Immediately discard foods with those colors of mold on them.

George Carlin, "Ice Box Man"

Here is the sketch:

I'm the ice box man at our house. I'm Ice Box Man! I answer the call when there's a need at the ice box. Two very important responsibilities, the first one is: keeping people from standing with the door to the refrigerator open for more than 45 minutes at a time. God, that gets me mad - "YOU WANT TO CLOSE THAT GODDAMN DOOR PLEASE? YOU WANT TO CLOSE THE DOOR?! YOU'RE LETTING OUT ALL OF THE COLDNESS I SAVED OVERNIGHT! COME ON, CLOSE THE DOOR!" - you know, some guy smoked eight joints and he's gonna inventory my refrigerator. "Ummmm...Ummm...Uhhh.... "Here, here's fifty dollars- go down to the Burger King. Willya, God! We'll save more than that on electricity alone. Close the goddamn door, willya?" Look, if you wanna know what's in there, why don't you take a Polaroid picture and go away and look at the picture and then come back and figure out what you want. Years ago, we didn't have Polaroid cameras. We had to make an OIL PAINTING of what was in there!

Aah, I don't let it get me down. 'Cause there's a bigger responsibility. And that is getting into that refrigerator and deciding which things need to be thrown away. Most people will not take that responsibility. Most people will just go and get what they want, leave everything else alone and say, "Well, someone else wants that. Someone else will eat that" Meanwhile, the thing is getting smaller and smaller and smaller and is, in fact stuck to the rack. Well, I've got to go in there and decide when to throw things away. "Chocolate pudding? Does anyone want this last chocolate pudding? I have just one chocolate pudding left. It's only pulled away from the side of the dish about three inches all the way around. And there's a huge fault running through the center of the pudding. Actually, it's nothing but a ball of skin at this point. Does anyone want a ball of fault ridden chocolate pudding skin? I'm only going to throw it away."

Do people do that with you? Offer you some food that if you don't eat it, they're only going to throw it away. Well, doesn't that make you feel dandy? "Here's something to eat, Dave. Hurry up, it's spoiling!" "Something for you, Angela. Eat quickly, that green part is moving!" "Here, Bob. Eat this before I give it to an animal." Y'ever been looking through the refrigerator and you come across an empty plate? Boy, that starts me to wondering. Did something eat something else? Maybe the olives ate the tuna! Maybe that chicken isn't really dead yet. Actually, I picture a little mouse with gloves and a parka on, y'know. Just waiting for the lights to go out.

Perhaps the worst thing that can happen is to reach into the refrigerator and come out with something that you cannot identify at all. You literally do not know what it is. Could be meat, could be cake. Usually, at a time like that, I'll bluff. "Honey, is this good?" "Well, what is it?" "I don't know. I've never seen anything like it. It looks like...meatcake!" "Well, smell it." (snort, sniff) "It has absolutely no smell whatsoever!" "It's good! Put it back! Somebody is saving it. It'll turn up in something." That's what frightens me. That someone will consider it a challenge and use it just because it's in there.

It's a leftover. What a sad word that is. Leftover. How would you like to be...a leftover? Well, it wouldn't be bad if they were taking people out to be shot. I might even volunteer. But, y'know, leftovers make you feel good twice. D'ja ever think about that? Leftovers give you two separate good feelings. When you first put them away, you feel really intelligent- "I'm saving food!" And then, after a month, when hair is growing out of them and you throw them away you feel...really intelligent- "I'm saving my life!"

When you make a sandwich at home, do you reach down past the first three or four pieces of bread to go down and get 'the good bread'? It's kind of a self preservation thing, y'know? What you're really saying is, "Let my family eat the rotten bread! I'll take care of Numero Uno!" And down you go into the loaf. Down, looking for the two that you want, a matching pair. And you have to be careful pulling them out so they don't tear. And then when you get them to the top, the upper eight slices fall the other way. I never straighten them out. I think, screw it, let 'em think a burglar made a sandwich. Not my job, straightening out the bread.

Gotta tell me. In the refrigerator, who is it, please that puts into the refrigerator the half-gallon containers of milk with only that much left in them? I get one of those every time. Hey, here's some milk- fooom! ...God, not enough to drink. Better put that back, huh? I know my responsibilities.

in what year was the first home refigerator used?

18 cubic foot refrigerator (bottom-freezer) purchased in June 1998; failed in December 2007 (lasted 9.5 years); energy use is 699 kWh per year. New 18 cubic foot refrigerator (bottom-freezer) energy use is 476 kWh per year. Buy a new one to save energy.

that means you need to replace your cv azel We have a 1991 Mercury Cougar LS which is not front wheel drive. We changed the inner tie rod ends and bellows. The right one seemed to be ok but the left one had splattered grease all over it. After changing these the noise stopped.

Frigidaire was a brand name which was shortend to "Fridge" and used generically for all brands.

"Icebox" is also used, but "fridge" is more common. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, "fridge" is a shortened form of "refrigerator," although the brand-name Frigidaire may have contributed to it's continued popularity.

Cool music!!! :d:d:d
