"!This program calculates the two-dimensional steady-state temperature distribution in a square plate. Two of the four edges are at 100°C, one is maintained at 0°C and one is insulated. The solution illustrates the use of 2-dimensional arrays and contour and 3-D plots."

"Notice that it is not necessary for the user to program any iterative procedures to solve the equations.

View the plot window to see a contour plot of the calculated results.

A refrigerator is running with tetrafluoroethane (R1-34a) as the fluid and working based on the following cycle. Saturated vapor at -12oC is entering the compressor and leaving it at 40oC. The superheated vapor after the compressor then condensed at constant pressure to saturated liquid, which ethers the “Joule-Thompson” throttling valve and back to the initial pressure.
