Abstract
The vapor compression refrigeration (VCR) and air conditioning systems are widely used for cooling, refrigeration, air conditioning, heating purposes and consumes more than 33% of the world energy. Solar energy is available abundantly as renewable energy source in summer when requirement of comfort is in peak demand. The electrical energy is replaced with solar energy by properly selecting solar panels, battery, inverter, charge controllers for storing fruits and vegetables in rural areas due to uncertain pattern of grid electricity. In the paper, solar power VCR system is designed and simulated with Simulink to estimate the performance in terms of irradiance and temperature. It is found that with rise in irradiance, current and power outcome increases. The solar system is CO2 free with substantial saving of 9700 whereas conventional VCR system produces 5292 kg of CO2 during life time of solar PV system.
