Thermoelectric Refrigeration System with Water Cooling

Abstract

The conventional refrigeration systems make the refrigerating effect using vapour compression or vapour absorption cycle. The main component of this conventional system is compressor which has the moving parts and so that suffers from the mechanical losses and leads to the lower coefficient of performance. The refrigerant, commonly used in the conventional system, is Hydro-Fluro-Carbon or HFC causes vulnerability effect in the environment. Thermoelectric refrigeration system could be an alternative of the conventional refrigeration system so that the environmental hazards and the loss of mechanical power could be avoided. The present work in this paper deals with the refrigeration system with water cooling using thermoelectric Peltier Effect. The contribution of this proposed work is to make a low cost thermoelectric refrigeration system where a steep fall in temperature can be achieved.
