    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auto-defrost

    A defrost thermostat opens the heater circuit when the evaporator temperature rises above a preset temperature, 40°F (5°C) or more, thereby preventing excessive heating of the freezer compartment. The defrost timer is such that either the compressor or the defrost heater is on, but not both at the same time.

  3. Defrosting (refrigeration) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defrosting_(refrigeration)

    Defrosting a freezer with an improvised water collection method. In refrigerators, defrosting (or thawing) is the removal of frost and ice.. A defrosting procedure is generally performed periodically on refrigerators and freezers to maintain their operating efficiency.

  4. Refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigerator

    Most refrigerator-freezers—except for manual defrost models or cheaper units—use what appears to be two thermostats. Only the refrigerator compartment is properly temperature controlled. When the refrigerator gets too warm, the thermostat starts the cooling process and a fan circulates the air around the freezer.

  5. Thermostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

    Although the thermostat may indicate the system is in defrost and electric heat is activated, the defrost function is not controlled by the thermostat. Since the heat pump has electric heat elements for supplemental and reheats, the heat pump thermostat provides for use of the electric heat elements should the refrigeration system fail.

  6. Heat pump and refrigeration cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump_and...

    Thermodynamic heat pump cycles or refrigeration cycles are the conceptual and mathematical models for heat pump, air conditioning and refrigeration systems. [1] A heat pump is a mechanical system that transmits heat from one location (the "source") at a certain temperature to another location (the "sink" or "heat sink") at a higher temperature. [2]

  7. Refrigeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigeration

    In the cooling step on the inside of the refrigerator, the g state particle absorbs energy from ambient particles, cooling them, and itself jumping to the e state. In the second step, on the outside of the refrigerator where the particles are also at an e state, the particle falls to the g state, releasing energy and heating the outside particles.
