I didn’t mean any offence. Ice would melt eventually without heating, but the long latent heat cycle would mean the temperature in the ‘fridge would rise quite a bit (depending on how many times one opened the door) during the compressor’s downtime... it might not be acceptable to have the milk at 15c.
All you need to make your perpetual motion machine work properly is a negative entropy maker, that way the thermodynamics equations work perfectly well backwards. I looked on eBay but I couldn’t find one that looked like it might work
