Nowadays, technology is growing rapidly. A refrigerator is one of the technology applications by using heat transfer phenomena. However, the existing refrigerators in big size, need large power, and able to damage the ozone because most of the refrigerators utilize CFC. It is necessary to create a compact refrigerator with low energy needed and environmental friendly. In this study, a small cooler box of 24.5 cm x 20 cm x 28.5 cm with 2 modules Peltier SP 1848-27145 type arranged in cascade was used as a refrigerator. The data were logged by using the data logger DAQ MX 9714 NI that was connected to the PC by using LabView. In this experiment, 22 Watt of the electric power was used and 350 ml water was placed on the cooler box room. The results show that the temperature of the cooler box room with the single fan heat pipe is lower than the heat sink fin-fan. Furthermore, the temperature of the cooler box room with the single fan heat pipe where 350ml water were placed is lower than the cooler box room without the single fan. Moreover, the COP of the cooler box is significantly affected by the heat dissipation unit.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
