Refrigerators
What is refrigerator?
Refrigerator is an appliance or compartment that is artificially kept cool and used to store food and
drink. Modern refrigerators generally make use of the cooling effect produced when a volatile liquid is
forced to evaporate in a sealed system in which it can be condensed back to liquid outside the
refrigerator.
Cooling
The cool temperatures of refrigerators allow homeowners to store food for a few days until
consumption. Fresh meats, eggs, dairy products and vegetables can be stored without spoilage.
Storage
Prior to refrigeration, storing food for more than a few days would often lead to the food spoiling and
becoming inedible. While storing food underwater was possible in a river or lake or in a cellar where the
temperature would not rise as much, this would extend the lifespan of the food only slightly.
Refrigeration allows the temperature to be lowered so far that food can be stored for days or even
months.
Price
Compare to the service we get from the refrigerator with price is not so high. Otherwise now there are
several brands are available and they are manufacturing wonderful refrigerator. So you can choose your
one according to your requirement and your budget among the several brand and model.
Disadvantages of Refrigerator
Energy Requirements
Perhaps the biggest disadvantage of the refrigerator is the cost to run it. To run a Refrigerator needs
proper power supply. In the earlier stage refrigerator consumed huge electricity but now refrigerators
have become much more energy efficient, using 60 percent less power today than earlier.
Common Repairs
There are few common problems such as icing, ice maker malfunction, cooling problems and replaced
fan motors etc. have to face by the user and cost of preparing is not so significance.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Microwave
Oven
What is a microwave oven?
An microwave oven is a kitchen appliance that heats and cooks food by exposing it to electromagnetic
radiation in the microwave frequency range. This induces polar molecules in the food to rotate and
produce thermal energy in a process known as dielectric heating. Microwave ovens heat foods quickly
and efficiently because excitation is fairly uniform in the outer 25–38 mm (1–1.5 inches) of
a homogeneous, high water content food item; food is more evenly heated throughout than generally
occurs in other cooking techniques.
