Design and Fabrication of Solar Powered Refrigerator

EasyChair Preprint 13226

Abstract

This project address the growing need for sustainable energy solutions due to the depletion of non-renewable resources. It proposes a design for a compact and affordable solar powered refrigerator, ideal for outdoor activities, medical supplies for rural areas, or picnics. The refrigerator utilizes solar energy through a solar panel and stores excess power in battery via a hybrid inverter and charge controller. The core cooling system comprises a compressor, evaporator, condenser, and expansion valve, operating efficiently to minimize energy consumption. We choose to use a vapor compression refrigeration system for this project. This project aims to contribute to the development of environmentally friendly refrigeration technology which optimized energy usage.

Keyphrases: Non-Renewable Energy, Refrigerator, Sustainable Energy, solar power, vapor compression
