A refrigerator room for storage of ice cream will be designed as room with a square floor and a height which is twice the length of a side of the floor. The cost of refrigerant is USD 85.40/yr per m3 of refrigerant and the fixed cost amount to USD (5000/Floor Area)per year. Find the dimensions of the room to give the minimum cost.
