  2. Einstein refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein_refrigerator

    The Einstein–Szilard or Einstein refrigerator is an absorption refrigerator which has no moving parts, operates at constant pressure, and requires only a heat source to operate. It was jointly invented in 1926 by Albert Einstein and his former student Leó Szilárd, who patented it in the U.S. on November 11, 1930 ( U.S. patent 1,781,541 ).

  3. Dilution refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_refrigerator

    The heat necessary for the dilution is the useful cooling power of the refrigerator, as the process of moving the 3 He through the phase boundary is endothermic and removes heat from the mixing chamber environment. The 3 He then leaves the mixing chamber in the dilute phase. On the dilute side and in the still the 3 He flows through superfluid ...

  4. Refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigerator

    Globally. Food in a refrigerator with its door open. A refrigerator, colloquially fridge, is a commercial and home appliance consisting of a thermally insulated compartment and a heat pump (mechanical, electronic or chemical) that transfers heat from its inside to its external environment so that its inside is cooled to a temperature below the ...

  5. FINE MEP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FINE_MEP

    FINE MEP ( Mechanical Electrical and Plumbing) is a BIM CAD software tool for building services engineering design, built on top of IntelliCAD (CAD editor and development platform). It provides full IFC ( Industry Foundation Classes) support, according to the 2x3 IFC Standard. FINE BIM structure, enables a smart model shaping and high design ...

  6. Absorption refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_refrigerator

    An absorption refrigerator is a refrigerator that uses a heat source to provide the energy needed to drive the cooling process. Solar energy, burning a fossil fuel, waste heat from factories, and district heating systems are examples of convenient heat sources that can be used. An absorption refrigerator uses two coolants: the first coolant ...

  7. Refrigerator death - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigerator_death

    A refrigerator death is death by suffocation in a refrigerator or other air-tight appliance. Because, by design, such appliances are air-tight when closed, a person entrapped inside will have a low supply of oxygen. Early refrigerators could only be opened from the outside, making accidental entrapment a possibility, particularly of children ...

  8. Auto-defrost - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auto-defrost

    A defrost timer taken out of a household refrigerator. The defrost mechanism in a refrigerator heats the cooling element (evaporator coil) for a short period of time and melts the frost that has formed on it. [1] The resulting water drains through a duct at the back of the unit. Defrosting is controlled by an electric or electronic timer.

  9. Heat pump and refrigeration cycle - Wikipedia

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

    e. Thermodynamic heat pump cycles or refrigeration cycles are the conceptual and mathematical models for heat pump, air conditioning and refrigeration systems. 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. [1]
