Abstract

Thermoelectric refrigeration system is considered environmentally friendly because it does not use refrigerants which have huge potential for damaging the ozone layer. In this experimental work, a vapor chamber heat sink was used to absorb heat at the hot side of Peltier module of the cooler box. The cooler box has 215 mm × 175 mm × 130 mm of inner dimension. The performance of cooler box is analysed for each different current supplies to the thermoelectric module. The result shows that increasing the current result in larger temperature difference of the hot and the cold side, increase the cabin temperature, decrease the COP of the cooler box. The experimental result also stated that highest COP with 500 ml of water within the cooler box is 0.72.
