Thermodynamics - Refrigerator

convection

Is the fridge running?

What?

>>8112362
Yes, I thought it was heavily implied.

>>8112371
If it's running, then we're lucky the door's closed!

The temperature of the room will increase over time.

>>8112372
Yeah but is the inside of the refrigerator included now as part of the room or not? What happens inside the fridge?

>>8112379
Inside of the fridge is cooled, outside gets heated (there are radiators on the back of the fridge). Overall, the power delivered to the room (to keep the fridge running) is the rate of heat increase in the room.

>>8112356
obviously the temperature will increase as you're running bullshit like a compressor which heats up.
>>8112379
why the fuck would it be different ,im assuming you meant the room was an isolated thermodynamic system (which by the way isnt so isolated if there's an electric current incoming from outside)

for that matter it dosnt matter if the fridge is open or closed ,in both cases nothing inside the room is isolated just the heat is conducted at different rates .

The refrigerator is running, yes.
The room as a whole gets heated, yes.
The refrigerator is open. Does the inside of refrigerator count as a part of the room now?
The temperature inside the refrigerator is lower than the that of the room.
So does it mean that the inside of refrigerator will get hotter due to heating by convection by the air from the room.
Or will the refrigerator keep it at the same temperature even though the room is getting hotter?

The inside of the fridge will get hotter, which will mean the radiator will get get hotter, which means the room will get hotter.... And so on until the room and fridge are in thermal equilibrium.

Which i guess will never come to because the refrigerator is adding more energy to the system all the time

what the fuck am i reading.

>>8112406
Or will the refrigerator keep it at the same temperature even though the room is getting hotter?

was the full sentence.
It was referring to the temperature inside the refrigerator

>a fridge with infinite efficiency
obviously the fridge will stay the same temp until the outside reaches a high enough temp that the refrigeration mechanism cant function .

It's running to your house to rape you dead

is /sci/ always this illiterate?

>>8112371
you better go catch it bro, don't let it run away!

The temperature will increase in the room until the circuits overheat.

The inside of the fridge will remain colder than the rest of the room because that's where the colder air is being directed to. It will still circulate with the surrounding air and get warmer as the room does, but the fridge will continue to pump ~40 degree F air into the cavity. That 40 degree air will occupy less and less of the cavity as the room warms due to how quickly it is warmed up by the surrounding air.
