Abstract

A thermoelectric cooler is a solid state heat pump that uses the Peltier effect, and works in conjunction with a heat sink to remove heat from a system. Most applications that require cooling do not employ thermoelectrics because of the low values of efficiency that are inherent in thermoelectric coolers. Thermoelectric module is a simple device that can be used as a cooling element. This system has the merits of being light, reliable, noiseless and low cost compare to the refrigerant as a heat carrier in the refrigeration system. The main objective of this research is fabricate thermoelectric cooler and study of thermoelectric cooling module system and to run some experimental procedures to determine the performance of temperature using thermoelectric device. This thermoelectric cooler are using the thermoelectric device CP2-127-06L from the Melcor company. In this experiment, three different boxes are use to determine the performance of thermoelectric and in order to check the corresponding respond of the cooler box to the cooling load, some water (1000ml) been put to the cooler box. Experiment results demonstrate that the unit maintain the temperature in the box around 100C to 120C and have a COP about 0.3.It is expected that the cooler box would be potential for food stuff and drink in remote area, or outdoor applications where electric power supply is absent just using the battery.
