The Eternal Thermodynamic Temptation
Engineers and thermodynamics students know the struggle! The guy (H₂O/R134A) is checking out the seductive simplicity of ideal gas equations (PV=MRT) while his girlfriend (thermodynamic tables) watches in disbelief. The perfect relationship with ideal gases is just a fantasy - real-world refrigerants like R134A have complicated behaviors that refuse to follow those clean, elegant equations. They're messy, they're complex, and they require those thick thermodynamic tables that nobody wants to flip through during exams! The eternal temptation to simplify is real, but those tables are there for a reason... your refrigerator wouldn't work if gases were actually ideal!
