“…They found that the primary obstacles to the widespread use of thermoelectric and Stirling cycle refrigeration were these technologies' lesser efficiency and greater prices as compared to vapor compression refrigeration. Kretinin et al introduced a simulation model for TECs in the ANSYS Program [10]. Shaojing et al [11] created an adaptive proportional-integral-derivative (PID) neural network technique to control the temperature of thermoelectric systems.…”

This study presents experimental research concerning an active thermoelectric cooling control architecture applied to portable, solar-powered medical refrigerators. A specialized Electronic Control Unit (ECU) has been devised for regulating thermoelectric cooling, enabling users to define operational thresholds for the thermoelectric coolers through the system's architecture. The TEC1-12706 thermoelectric cooling system was employed. The system is engineered to swiftly cool the medical refrigerator's storage cabinet by up to 6 °C within 30 minutes and maintain a critical temperature range of 2 °C to 8 °C, vital for safeguarding thermolabile vaccines and medications. The control unit design encompasses a closed-loop control approach utilizing an Arduino Nano, a Linear voltage regulator, and a solar-powered battery charging setup. The Arduino issues signals based on preset points through sensors, thereby regulating the refrigeration system's desired temperature, while a relay module serves as an ON-OFF controller for temperature management. Preliminary results affirm that, in conjunction with a heat sink and DC fan, the thermoelectric cooler successfully achieves the intended temperature range, demonstrating promising cooling capabilities.
