An Analysis of Solar-Powered Refrigerators Using Peltier Modules
There is a wide range of flexibility in using solar energy. An experimental evaluation of a solar-powered refrigerator with two Peltier modules for its cooling mechanism was carried out in this study. The study was conducted at Graphic Era Deemed University in the climate of Dehradun. The system ran on solar power during the day and an additional battery at night to maintain the lower temperatures. The system's temperature dropped from 30.9 ̊C to 16.9 ̊C after 22 minutes and 6 seconds, enabling it to operate for 3.18 hours using an 84W battery pack.
