Refrigerators are an invention that truly helps us to change the way we conduct our daily lives. Nowadays living without a refrigerator will be difficult, but refrigerators are big, expensive, needed high energy to run and it can only be use at home. So we decided to make a product that you can carry everywhere. Battery powered cooler is a combination of ice cooler and refrigerator that is Battery-powered, portable, affordable, and easy to use.

Ice cube are most commonly used to help the drinks inside to stay cool but because of the evolution of technology we decided to take advantage to it so that we can make a portable drink cooler for the people who like to go in picnics, camping, festivals, and cyclists. Since its small we can easily carry it using our bare hands and storing it won’t be a problem because of its structure.

The main purpose of this project is to create a machine that can cool beverage during outdoor activities which will help people to do things easier and provide an affordable and durable cooling system.

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION Heat is one of the problem that we are facing today in the Philippines, In our country, May is the hottest month averaging 85 Fahrenheit and we people like to travel during vacation to discover new things and to relax ourselves, like swimming, fishing, hiking, and camping, most of us like to drink cold water than warm. Yet it is clearly far more pleasant and refreshing to drink cool water than it is to drink warm water somehow cool water is more efficient and rehydrating cell. Cold water is pleasant when your body is overheating and overheating means sweating which means we lose water and therefore feel thirsty faster.

The reason to make a battery powered cooler is that all the other products in the markets are heavy, expensive and it can only be use at home and uses electricity from the wall plugs. So we decided to make a cooler box that runs on battery which can keep a beer or any types drinks cool during outdoor activities, since its portable it will be smaller, cheaper and easy to use.

1.1 Background of the Problem Nowadays refrigerator became a common necessity in every home that truly improved the way we manage our food and beverage. During summer vacation many people go out of town on mountains and beach to hike or swim but drinking a warm soda is not as satisfying as drinking a cold one. So we the innovators decided to build a battery powered cooler that you can bring anywhere and every time you go to a mountains or beach. Our cooler will make sure to keep your drinks cold and preserve your food without using any single ice.

Though the refrigerator in late 1920s used a combination of chemicals that cause severe accidents involving gas leak we will use the peltier module as a cooling system because it does not eject any harmful gas that can cause pollution. The thermoelectric module or peltier module does not only reduce the air pollution by not contributing to it but also reduce power consumption. After figuring out the cooling system we are going to use we pick Styrofoam as an insulator because of the trapped gas bubble that hinders hit to keep the temperature cold. Then we picked a good quality automotive battery as a power source to help the longevity of our cooler. The researchers will make a portable, power efficient, durable and environment friendly cooling system using the peltier effect.

1.2 Research Hypothesis

Hypothesis The hypothesis of this research is that Battery powered cooler will be affordable and have an over lasting battery that can cool beverages in a few minutes.

Alternative hypothesis The Battery powered cooler will be able to last a whole day while keeping the cool of the beverage inside without having a problem.

Null hypothesis The portable drink cooler will not be able to maintain the beverage cool and won’t be able to last more than 24 hours.

CHAPTER 2 REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

2.1 Foreign Literature According to Marshall Brain & Sara Elliott (2006), Refrigeration changed the way we conduct our daily lives. Preserving food became easy and helps us prevent eating food that has food-borne illnesses. Today, we take refrigeration for granted, but once upon a time, fortunes were made shipping large blocks of ice around the world in insulated holds to sell to the rich. Before refrigeration, preserving food was a big job. You could salt foods, and in winter, you could bury food in a snow drift and hope the critters didn't find it. To stay stocked with the essentials, though, you had to work at it -- or be rolling in money.

A refrigerator is any kind of enclosure (like a box, cabinet, or room) whose interior temperature is kept substantially lower than the surrounding environment. It is a machine that keeps food cool with some very clever science. All the time your refrigerator is humming away, liquids are turning into gases, water is turning into ice, and your food is staying deliciously fresh. Bacteria breed inside a food, but it grows less quickly at lower temperature (Chris Woodford 2018).

Parts of a refrigerator

The first Part of refrigerator is the expansion valve also referred to as the flow control device; an expansion valve controls the flow of the liquid refrigerant (also known as ‘coolant’) into the evaporator. It’s actually a very small device that is sensitive to temperature changes of the refrigerant. Then the compressor, the compressor consists of a motor that ‘sucks in’ the refrigerant from the evaporator and compresses it in a cylinder to make a hot, high-pressure gas. The third is the evaporator this is the part that actually cools the stuff kept inside a refrigerator. It consists of finned tubes (made of metals with high thermal conductivity to maximize heat transfer) that absorb heat blown through a coil by a fan. The evaporator absorbs heat from the stuff kept inside, and as a result of this heat,

9

the liquid refrigerant turns into vapor. Fourthly the condenser consists of a coiled set of tubes with external fins and is located at the rear of the refrigerator. It helps in the liquefaction of the gaseous refrigerant by absorbing its heat and subsequently expelling it to the surroundings. As the heat of the refrigerant is removed, its temperature drops to condensation temperature, and it changes its state from vapor to liquid. And lastly the refrigerant Also commonly referred to as the coolant, it’s the liquid that keeps the refrigeration cycle going. It’s actually a specially designed chemical that is capable of alternating between being a hot gas and a cool liquid.

How Refrigerator works

According to arshish (2015), the working principle of a refrigerator (and refrigeration, in general) is very simple: it involves the removal of heat from one region and its deposition to another. When you pass a low-temperature liquid close to objects that you want to cool, heat from those objects is transferred to the liquid, which evaporates and takes away the heat in the process. Gases heat up when you compress them and cool down when they are allowed to expand. The tendency of gases to become hot when compressed and cold when expanded, along with the help of a few nifty devices, helps a refrigerator cool the stuff being kept inside it.

Refrigerator works when the refrigerant, which is now in a liquid state, passes through the expansion valve and turns into a cool gas due to the sudden drop in pressure. As the cool refrigerant gas flows through the chiller cabinet, it absorbs the heat from the food items inside the fridge and vaporizes. The refrigerant, which is now a gas, flows into the compressor, which sucks it inside and compresses the molecules together to make it into a hot, high-pressure gas.

10

Now, this gas transports to the condenser coils (thin radiator pipes) located at the back of the fridge, where the coils help dissipate its heat so that it becomes cool enough to condense and convert back into its liquid phase. Because the heat collected from the food items is given off to the surroundings via the condenser, it feels hot to the touch. After the condenser, the liquid refrigerant travels back to the expansion valve, where it experiences a pressure drop and once again becomes a cool gas. It then absorbs heat from the contents of the fridge and the whole cycle repeats itself.

The History of Refrigerator 1800- The term “refrigerator” was coined by a Maryland engineer, Thomas Moore..

1748- the first artificial form of refrigeration was born by one of the early refrigeration inventors, William Cullen at the University of Glasgow.

1911-the first home refrigerators were being manufactured by General Electric, selling for around $1,000—nearly twice as much as an automobile at the time. Up through the late 1920s- most refrigerators used combinations of toxic gases as refrigerants. After several fatal accidents involving gas leaks, Frigidaire, General Motors, and DuPont joined forces to find a safer solution. This solution was named Freon. Unlike its predecessors, Freon is colorless, odorless, nonflammable, noncorrosive, and best of all, nontoxic.

1930- Frigidaire patented the substance and General Motors and DuPont began Freon production under the new company name, Kinetic Chemical.

11

Mid-1940s- Refrigerator and freezer units became more common at home during World War II, going into mass-production. Around this time, Albert Einstein had designed his own form refrigerator (known only as "Einstein's Refrigerator").

In the 1970s and 80s- discoveries were made linking CFC-compound gases (like Freon) to the depletion of the ozone layer. In the early 1990s, environmental concerns lead to the ban of Freon. Since then, modern refrigerators have used variations of tetrafluoroethane as a refrigerant.

Today- refrigerators have grown from more than a luxury and into a common necessity to every household. Technology has made the refrigerator both affordable to buy, but also energy-efficient, thanks to Energy Star standards.

Refrigeration

Refrigeration is defined as the science of maintaining the temperature of a particular space lower than the surrounding space. Thermodynamically, when the body at certain temperature is kept in the atmosphere it tends to attain the temperature of the atmosphere. But with the process of refrigeration it can be kept at temperature much lower than the atmospheric temperature. Refrigeration has number of applications; one of the most common applications is household refrigerator and air conditioner. Other applications of refrigeration include making ice, ice cream, chilled water, frozen food etc. One of the first things every HVAC/R student learns is that air conditioning units don’t create cool air. What they actually do is remove heat out of a given area. All refrigeration systems work by transferring heat around, moving it from a designated area to somewhere else, thus cooling that designated area off and reversing the natural flow of heat with the application of energy. How this happens, however, varies among the four different types of refrigeration systems (Zander Buel May 15, 2018).

12

Types of Refrigeration Systems

While the four types of refrigeration systems have many similarities, they have just as many differences. To help you get ahead of the curve, we’ve broken down each one in some summaries below.

Mechanical-Compression Refrigeration Systems

The most widely used refrigeration cycle method is mechanical compression. It has applications in both air conditioning and commercial and industrial refrigeration. As the name suggests, these types of systems transfer heat by mechanically compressing refrigerant into a low-pressure, cold liquid and expanding it into a high-pressure, hot gas. Refrigerants are substances that can boil at a wide range of temperatures with the application or removal of pressure.

Like all liquids, they absorb heat when they boil into a gas and release it when they condense back into a liquid. The basics of the process deal with moving the refrigerant from the low-pressure side of the closed system to the high-pressure side. The liquid refrigerant boils at 40°F on the lowpressure side and absorbs heat from the warm indoor air. On the high-pressure side of the system, the heat travels from the 110°F vapor refrigerant to the cooler outdoor air, and the process repeats.

Absorption Refrigeration

13

Heat is also transferred in absorption refrigeration systems by compressing and expanding refrigerant. These systems rely on the process of absorption and heat, instead of an electrically powered mechanical compressor, to move the refrigerant from the lowpressure side to the high-pressure side. Unlike mechanical-compression refrigeration systems, which typically use R-22 and R-410A for refrigerants, absorption refrigeration systems use refrigerants that other substances are attracted to and absorb. For example, residential HVAC chillers often use ammonia as the refrigerant and water as the absorbent. The water is located in a component called the absorber, where it sucks ammonia from the low-pressure side of the system and removes heat while absorbing it. A pump sends the water-ammonia solution to a generator, which boils it, separating the ammonia from the water before sending it to the high-pressure side. In addition to the process of absorption, heat is also used to move the refrigerant throughout the system. The heat can derive from hot water, steam, natural gas or other fuel sources.

Evaporative Cooling

Unlike the mechanical-compression and absorption refrigeration systems discussed above, evaporative cooling doesn’t use the traditional refrigeration cycle. Instead, these units often called swamp coolers, cool warmer outdoor air by blowing it over water-soaked pads as it enters the home.

The water absorbs the heat from the air and evaporates. The cooler air is channeled into the home and the warm air out of it. Evaporative coolers can reduce air temperature by 15° to 40°F but are best suited for dry climates, such as those in the southwestern U.S. They’re also less costly to install and use about a quarter of the energy of central air conditioners.

Thermoelectric Refrigeration

14

Thermoelectric refrigeration systems are unique from the three other types of refrigeration in that no refrigerant or water is used. These systems use an electric current and a thermocouple. A thermocouple is made up of two different metal wires that are united at both ends. Insulation separates the rest of the wires from each other. When the current is directed on the thermocouple, one end will become hot and the other cool. Reversing the current’s direction has the effect of swapping the cold and hot junctions. The hot end will typically be placed outside of the area to be cooled with a heat sink attached to it to keep it the same temperature as the surrounding air. The cold side, which is below room temperature, is placed in the area to be cooled, attracting heat out of the air. This type of refrigeration is generally used for small cooling loads that can be difficult to access, such as electronic systems.

Wide World of Refrigeration Refrigeration is only one part of an entire industry built around keeping indoor air comfortable and healthy called heating, air conditioning, ventilation, and refrigeration (HVAC/R).

Working of an Ice Cooler Box: Basics

Stated by Techniice USA (2017), an ice cooler box in its simplest definition is a portable device that is helpful for keeping perishable items or beverages fresh and cool for a long time. It is usually kept closed and is opened only when something is needed from inside of it. It can preserve food at near-freezing point for anywhere from some hours to a couple of days. Ice tends to melt slowly and when it turns into water, it needs to be drained out, filling the cooler completely with new ice. A certain amount of heat energy is required to melt the ice. While this energy is absorbed by ice, the temperature remains almost same,

15

however, it starts turning into water. An ice cooler box is meant to insulate, meaning the heat from the outside barely makes any difference. A big chunk of ice requires a lot of time and heat energy to melt. Even if the ice chunk starts melting, it keeps the food or beverages cold that are touching it. According to Carolyn Shearlock (2010), Block ice will last far longer than cubes, although cubes will chill things faster. To preserve your ice and food, it’s best to put drinks in a separate cooler. You’re likely to want drinks more often than food, and having them separate means that you won’t be letting cold out and heat into the food cooler every time you get a drink. And if the ice melts on the drinks because of opening that cooler more often, you can still drink the drinks whereas food will spoil if the ice melts faster than you expect.

Conduction, Convection and Radiant Cooling of Power Devices

Posted by Power guy (2007), all power devices generate heat. This is due to the unavoidable internal losses of all power circuits due to their inefficiencies. The higher the efficiency rating of the power device, the less internal heat is generated within it.

There are three methods of transferring or removing heat from power devices: These are conduction, convection and radiant.

Conduction Cooling: This is defined as the transfer of heat from one hot part to another cooler part by direct contact. For example, many DC-DC converters have a flat surface that is designed to mount directly to an external heat sink or cold plate that will conduct the heat away from the power device by direct contact, thereby cooling it. Conduction is the most widely used method of heat transfer. All power supplies use internal heatsinks to help conduct the heat away from the hot devices.

16

Convection Cooling: This involves the transfer of heat from a power device by the action of the natural air flow (a low density fluid) surrounding and contacting the device. Many power devices are rated for natural convection cooling as long as the air surrounding the unit remains within a limited temperature range that is cooler than the device. The advantage of this method of cooling is that no electromechanical fans are required.

Radiant Cooling: This is the transfer of heat by means of electromagnetic radiation (energy waves) that flow from a hot object (power device) to a cooler object. True radiant heat transfer can take place in a vacuum and does not require air. It should be noted that conduction cooled power devices also give off radiant heat; however, radiant heat transfer is less effective as a means to cool a power device than are conduction or convection cooling described above.

Why Is Styrofoam a Good Insulator?

In an article of Claire Gillespie (2018), Styrofoam is the trademarked term used for polystyrene foam, a petroleum-based plastic. It is owned by The Dow Chemical Company. Styrofoam is exceptionally lightweight, an excellent shock absorber and an effective insulator, making it one of the most common plastics used in the manufacture of packing and insulating materials. Styrofoam is also thermoplastic, meaning it changes from a liquid to a solid at a certain temperature. This allows it to be molded in fine detail to make craft materials and disposable containers. Heat energy is lost—it moves from a hotter object to a colder one—in one of three ways. Conduction is the transfer of heat caused when minuscule particles collide within a body. A spoon sitting in a hot beverage conducts heat, making its handle warm to touch. Convection is heat transfer due to bulk movement of molecules in fluids like liquids and gases. When the fluid expands, it creates convection current as its temperature rises. This explains why warmer air rises and colder air falls.

17

Radiation is the emission of energy as electromagnetic waves or as moving subatomic particles; it heats anything solid it travels through that soaks up its energy. Keeping something warm involves stopping the transfer of heat from one object to another. This is how insulation works. Styrofoam is made mostly of air, meaning it is a poor conductor of heat, but an excellent convector. It traps the air in small pockets, blocking the flow of heat energy. This reduces both conduction and convection and makes Styrofoam a good insulator. On the other hand, conductors such as metal are poor insulators because energy flows through them. Glass and air are other examples of good insulators. Styrofoam is placed in wall cavities to keep the inside of buildings warm. It traps air and reduces the transfer of heat energy, keeping heat inside the building.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE ICE COOLER by Erick Jackson (2015)

1637- Sir William Berkley, governor of Virginia was granted a patent to collect snow and ice and keep it in pits, caves, and cool places that would prevent it from melting quickly. Late 1700’s- in Philadelphia, the Chestnut Street Hotel built an underground “Ice House” and served their own special “Punch” every day with a block of ice to keep it cold. 1799- Most plantations in the south had ice houses modeled after the Morris built ice house in Philadelphia. New England began the ice trade, shipping ice from the north to the south in a bed of sawdust. Various sizes, shapes, and construction of the “ice house” were being made, but none were portable. Late 1800’s- smaller ice boxes/cabinets were being built for urban dwellers, and the average house went through a ton of ice each year. 1900- The ice distribution business became efficient enough to fill most ice boxes on a biweekly basis. 1920- The year where refrigerator was invented and popularized. 1930- Where refrigerator were popularized.

18

1950’s- In the US, Richard Laramy filed a patent for the “Portable Ice Chest” and the Coleman Company sold it commercially and made it a house hold name. it is called a “Chilly Bin” in New Zealand, an “Esky” in Australia. Coolers were metal, with insulation in between the two layers.

Insulation, how much, and what kind; became very much

understood as the link between how long your ice would last.

However, what kind of

performance people expected from an ice cooler was very limited for the next 50 years. 1960’s- In the next 10 years Coolers get stale. Coolers became household items 2006- The yeti makes their own coolers that shocked everyone. 2014- Orion Coolers was born to its parent company.

Batteries

A battery can change chemical energy to electricity by putting certain chemicals in contact with each other in a specific way. Electrons, which are small parts of atoms, will travel from one kind of chemical to another under the right circumstances. When electrons flow, this makes an electrical current that can power something. What a battery does is put the right chemicals in the right relationships, and then puts a wall between them. Only when the two sides of a battery are connected by a wire or another conductor can the electrons flow. Batteries come in several styles; you are probably most familiar with singleuse alkaline batteries. NASA spacecraft usually use rechargeable nickel-cadmium or nickel-hydride batteries like those found in laptop computers or cellular phones. (DS1 uses nickel-hydrogen batteries.) Engineers think of batteries as a place to store electricity in a chemical form.

Batteries tend to expend their charge fairly quickly. DS1 can last from half an hour to three hours running purely on battery power before the batteries need to be recharged from the solar panels. These batteries are recharged thousands of times over the life of the spacecraft.

19

How do battery works?

Electricity, as you probably already know, is the flow of electrons through a conductive path like a wire. This path is called a circuit. Batteries have three parts, an anode (-), a cathode (+), and the electrolyte. The cathode and anode (the positive and negative sides at either end of a traditional battery) are hooked up to an electrical circuit. The chemical reaction in the battery causes a buildup of electrons at the anode. This results in an electrical difference between the anode and the cathode. You can think of this difference as an unstable build-up of the electrons. The electrons want to rearrange themselves to get rid of this difference. But they do this in a certain way. Electrons repel each other and try to go to a place with fewer electrons.

In a battery, the only place to go is to the cathode. But, the electrolyte keeps the electrons from going straight from the anode to the cathode within the battery. When the circuit is closed (a wire connects the cathode and the anode) the electrons will be able to get to the cathode. In the picture above, the electrons go through the wire, lighting the light bulb along the way. This is one way of describing how electrical potential causes electrons to flow through the circuit.

However, these electrochemical processes change the chemicals in anode and cathode to make them stop supplying electrons. So there is a limited amount of power available in a battery.

When you recharge a battery, you change the direction of the flow of electrons using another power source, such as solar panels. The electrochemical processes happen in reverse, and the anode and cathode are restored to their original state and can again provide full power.

Thermoelectric coolers operate according to the Peltier effect. The effect creates a temperature difference by transferring heat between two electrical junctions. A voltage is applied across joined conductors to create an electric current. When the current flows through the junctions of the two conductors, heat is removed at one junction and cooling occurs. Heat is deposited at the other junction.

The main application of the Peltier effect is cooling. However the Peltier effect can also be used for heating or control of temperature. In every case, a DC voltage is required.

Thermoelectric cooling

Thermoelectric cooling is a way to remove thermal energy from a medium, device or component by applying a voltage of constant polarity to a junction between dissimilar electrical conductors or semiconductors. A thermoelectric cooling system typically employs a matrix of semiconductor pellets sandwiched in between two large electrodes. When a DC voltage source is connected between the electrodes, the negatively-charged side becomes cooler while the positively-charged side becomes warmer. The negative electrode is placed in contact with the component, device or medium to be cooled, while the positive electrode is connected to a heatsink that radiates or dissipates thermal energy into the external environment.

DC FANS

21

According to Sam Pelonis (2015), Direct current fans, or DC fans, have a variable, uneven flow. In contrast, alternating current fans, or AC fans, change direction 50 times a second in order to provide a constant flow.

The Pros and Cons of DC fans

DC technology has become much more sophisticated in recent years, and it can now be applied to both residential and industrial ceiling fans. DC fans have motors that rely on permanent, built-in magnets in order to attract and repel a rotor around an axis joined with invertors. DC technology is much newer than AC technology, which means there are fewer options available.

PRO: Minimal electromagnetic interference

Because the electromagnetic interference of DC fans is minimal, sensitive electronic devices often use DC fans to prevent electromagnetic interference. For example, computer applications and equipment rely on DC fans, as they prevent overheating while still minimizing electromagnetic interference that could negatively affect sensitive applications.

PRO: Consumes less power

DC fans are widely regarded as the most efficient type of fan. They consume significantly less power than AC fans. In fact, DC fans consume up to 70 percent less energy to produce the same output as other fan types. For example, that means that a 25watt DC-driven fan uses the same power as a 100-watt AC-driven fan. This is ideal for commercial settings, like restaurants, allowing you to keep fans running all day without incurring astronomical electric bills.

22

PRO: Quieter

DC fans make use of a new type of electrically commutated motor (ECM). Not only are these motors ultra-efficient, they are also incredibly quiet. Because they are so quiet, DC fans are an excellent option for applications such as medical instruments, telecom switches, or car entertainment systems, where noise could be a nuisance.

PRO: Lower voltage

DC fans generally use less voltage than AC fans. The majority of DC fans are lowvoltage fans. For example, you can typically find 5V, 12V, and 24V versions of DC fans. Larger models of DC fans, such as 119mm to 172mm fan models, are typically available in 48V. In comparison, most AC cooling fan models are available in 115V, a much higher voltage. Lower voltage also makes DC fans potentially less dangerous.

PRO: Water Resistant

Pelonis Technologies, Inc. (PTI) has been designing, developing, and manufacturing industry-leading axial AC and brushless DC fans for more than 25 years. This includes a wide range of severe weather and water-resistant fans, which offer unparalleled dust and water protection while meeting military, and NASA material specifications, USP certifications, and UL certifications.

PRO: Intelligent Motion Control

The use of Intelligent Motion Controls in DC brushless fans and blowers has already arrived. With Intelligent Motion Controls, the movement of air is now smarter. The inclusion of full-wave-in-board circuit design and multiple features leaves no doubt that intelligence has enhanced air movement.

23

CON: Variable uneven flow The major drawback of DC fans is that they don’t provide a direct, constant flow. Rather, they provide a variable, uneven flow.

CON: May require a transformer

While AC fans use an alternating current, which reverses direction, DC fans use a direct current, which means the current only flows in one direction. Unlike AC fans, DC fans cannot be connected directly to a DC power source, such as solar panels or batteries. That means that DC fans must use a transformer to convert AC to DC so that the fan can be powered.

Heatsink

Stated by Robert Hartle (2010), Heat sink is an object that disperses heat from another object. They're most commonly used in computers, but are also found in cell phones, DVD players and even refrigerators. In computers, a heat sink is an attachment for a chip that prevents the chip from overheating and, in modern computers, it's as important as any other component. A heat sink without a fan is called a passive heat sink; a heat sink with a fan is called an active heat sink.

2.2 Local Literature DENR revises code for refrigeration, aircon industries MANILA, Philippines—The Department of Environment and Natural Resources has launched a new code that sets Earth-friendly standards and practices for manufacturers, dealers, and sellers of refrigerators and air conditioners in the Philippines. The new code of 24

practice for the refrigeration and air conditioning sector is a revision of the original code crafted in 2002 incorporating new practices and technologies that leave less carbon footprint on the environment, the DENR said. In a statement, Environmental Management Bureau (EMB) director Juan Miguel Cuna said the 2002 code was revised to guide the refrigeration and air conditioning industry on updated procedures and complement shifting technologies. “It is time to upgrade procedures on refrigeration and air conditioning. With advancement in technology come the need to introduce new practices that would enable us not only to protect but also to prevent damage to the environment,” he said. The EMB introduced the new code in a ceremony at the Quezon City Sports Club attended by participants from the industry, including manufacturers, importers, dealers, sellers and service providers of refrigerators and air conditioners. The event was organized by the National CFC (chlorofluorocarbons) Phase-out Plan-Project Management Unit of the EMB. A core group of technical experts, who worked on the revisions, presented the salient points of the revised code at the launch. Copies of the new code were also turned over to the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (Tesda), headed by Joel Villanueva, and the Refrigeration and Air-conditioning Technicians Association of the Philippines (Ractap). The Tesda will integrate the revised code in its curriculum for refrigeration and air conditioning servicing courses. The Ractap, a newly-formed organization, will use the material as reference guide for its registered members. Its members also signed a pledge of commitment to adopt the guidelines in the revised code as part of the efforts toward an “ODS (ozone-depleting substances)-free Philippines. ”The revised code contains new standard practices on the conversion of refrigerants and the use of alternatives to CFCs and other ODS, as well as on handling, storage, recovery, recycling, collection, transport and disposal of refrigerants. Cuna advised the public to buy only products that have been certified CFC-free, and to go only to service shops, technicians and dealers that are duly accredited by regulatory agencies. The Philippines has been implementing the total phase out of ODS in refrigeration and air conditioning systems, including industrial, mobile and residential types, as part of its

25

commitment to the 1987 Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer. As of 2010, the country has already completely phased out production and consumption of seven out of eight ODS, including CFCs which are widely used as refrigerants. Hydro chlorofluorocarbons or HCFCs, the last ODS on the list, will be phased out gradually starting this year and will be completely banned by 2040. “Rhodina Villanueva (The Philippine Star) – May 5, 2013”

TESDA promotes use of safer, refrigerants for aircon systems In a campaign launched this week at the agency’s Green Technology Center in Taguig City, the use of environmentally friendlier alternative refrigerants, such as R290 Hydrocarbon, was endorsed as 9 hydrocarbon (R290) split air-conditioning units and workshop equipment were turned over to TESDA. The R290 Hydrocarbon, as an alternative refrigerant, will help the Philippine’s RAC sector to achieve the goals of international protocols and environmental agreements such as the Kyoto Protocol (1997), Montreal Protocol (2007), Paris Agreement (2015), and Kigali Agreement (2016). Dhel Nazario, (2018) As part of its bid against global warming and climate change, the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) will be promoting the use of safer, natural alternative refrigerants for split-type air-conditioning systems. These will be used in the demonstration and training programs for the proper installation and safe use of alternative refrigerants. Secretary Guiling Mamondiong said that TESDA, through a cooperation agreement with the Deutsche Gesellschaft fur International Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH of Germany, will introduce the safe use of the R290 Hydrocarbon refrigerant for split-type air-conditioning systems as part of a program dubbed “Cool Contribution Fighting Climate Change (C4) Project”. In the Philippines, the project is done in coordination with the Climate Change Commission for Nationally Determined Contributions, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources for refrigerants, the Department of Energy to improve the energy 26

performance of climate-friendly alternatives, and the Department of Trade and Industry for the introduction and safe use of alternative refrigerants. The C4 Project is an initiative funded by Germany’s Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU-IKI), which is represented by its implementing agency, GIZ. The project aims to advance a comprehensive international system for controlling the use of climate-damaging fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-gas) such as hydroflourocarbons (HFCs), which are commonly used as refrigerants in refrigeration and air conditioning (RAC). The C4 project is currently being implemented by five other country-partners: Cuba, Grenada, Costa Rica, Iran, and Vietnam in support of their respective commitments to the Paris Agreement. A “green” technical and vocational education and training (TVET) (Green TVET) forum was conducted recently in preparation for the agency’s plans to adopt more environmentally safe technology and encourage technical-vocational (tech-voc) scholars to support the government’s advocacy to protect and preserve the environment, Mamondiong said.

3.1 RESEARCH DESIGN A research design is the set of methods and procedures used in collecting and analyzing measures of the variables specified in the research problem.

The researchers chose a quantitative research design using a survey to gather numerical data from the group of people this will help us to evaluate and analyze the effectivity of our newly innovated product to be marketed. Descriptive research methods is use to describe the characteristics of a population or phenomenon being studied. We use descriptive methods to gather data, analyze, classify, and tabulate data to prevail the opinions, perspective, and belief of different respondents.

The survey questionnaires were distributed throughout the target market in Balayan, Batangas to successfully gather and collect the data needed that was carefully examined and evaluated statistically and systematically.

3.3 Theoretical Framework A refrigerator is any kind of enclosure (like a box, cabinet, or room) whose interior temperature is kept substantially lower than the surrounding environment. It is a machine that keeps food cool with some very clever science.

According to arshish (2015), the working principle of a refrigerator (and refrigeration, in general) is very simple: it involves the removal of heat from one region and its deposition to another. When you pass a low-temperature liquid close to objects that you want to cool, heat from those objects is transferred to the liquid, which evaporates and takes away the heat in the process.

According to Marshall Brain & Sara Elliott (2006), Refrigeration changed the way we conduct our daily lives. Preserving food became easy and helps us prevent eating food that has food-borne illnesses. Refrigerant commonly referred as the coolant, it’s the liquid that keeps the refrigeration cycle going. It’s actually a specially designed chemical that is capable of alternating between being a hot gas and a cool liquid.

Posted by Power guy (2007), all power devices generate heat. This is due to the unavoidable internal losses of all power circuits due to their inefficiencies. The higher the efficiency rating of the power device, the less internal heat is generated within it.

According to Claire Claire Gillespie (2018), Convection is heat transfer due to bulk movement of molecules in fluids like liquids and gases. When the fluid expands, it creates convection current as its temperature rises. This explains why warmer air rises and colder air falls.

31

According to Carolyn Shearlock (2010), Block ice will last far longer than cubes, although cubes will chill things faster. Block ice melts slower because it has less surface area per amount of volume.

3.9 Statistical Tools After making the survey questionnaires the researchers will use a sampling technique to determine the sample size or the people who will be the respondent in the community of every barangay, Poblacion, and establishment throughout Balayan that will serve as the basis in the marketability of our product. Using the sloven’s formula, the researchers were able to determine the total sample size, or the respondent required to be surveyed as the representative from the total population of every barangay in Balayan.

Frequency Count and Percentage After the researchers gather the data, it is then tabulated and analyzed statistically. In connection with this, the researchers used the statistical tool – Frequency Count and Percentage in the treatment of data. The Frequency Count and Percentage are used in the research particularly in describing the profitability and effectivity of adding the new equipment and the factors that may affect it.

The percentages of the results were computed using the formula

PRESENTATION ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF THE STUDY This chapter presents the presentation, S.W.O.T analysis, 7p’s and interpretation of data. The data gathered were orderly presented, followed by analysis and its interpretation. 4.1 SWOT Analysis S.W.O.T analysis shows the strength, weakness, opportunities and threats of the researcher’s equipment. STRENGTHS

WEAKNESSES

 Durable

 Storage – It has a small storage that can only store 3-8 bottle drinks depends on the size

 Long lasting battery

 Single Battery

 Cost efficient

 Small and few fans OPPORTUNITIES

THREATS

 trustworthy establishment

 Other cooler brands has a customer’s loyalty

 The store is located in a public market so it is accessible

 People- lack of skill

 The store is inside located inside the Walter mart

 Big time competitors

46

Figure 4.0 shows the SWOT analysis of the researchers in a business. Strength

Strength is those features of the business which allow you to operate more effectively than your competitors. The battery powered cooler box is made of aluminum composite panel which is durable. The battery can also last up to 5-8 hours allowing the customers to use it for almost half a day during outdoor activities. Most of the parts of the battery powered cooler box is affordable and easy to find.

Weakness

Weaknesses are areas capable of improvement. The storage of battery powered box is insufficient because it can only store 3-8 bottle drinks. The cooler is only powered using a single battery so if the battery runs out of power or break down the customers can no longer use the cooler. The fans are small and few so it will take 30 minutes to 1 hour to cool the drinks

Opportunity

Opportunities are a combination of different circumstances at a given time that offer a positive outcome. The opportunities of product are the establishment which is the Abenson because of its credibility and accessibility as an authorized retailer. Because the Abenson is located in the Waltermart Balayan, customers can easily enter the store and able to decide if they want to purchase the product.

Threats

Threats can be external or internal, and are anything which can adversely affect your business. The external threats of the battery powered cooler are customer’s loyalty

47

to other brands that generated through long time connection of the customer and business and the big competitors that will rival us the moment we release the battery powered cooler box. The internal threats are the lack of skill of the people to market the cooler and maximize the potential of the battery powered cooler box

4.3 7Ps In order to deal with the market situation and competition, the researchers will carry various marketing strategies that regarded to the 7 P’s of Marketing.

Product A product is the tangible good or intangible services that the enterprise offers to its customers in order to satisfy their needs and to produce their expected results. Product is also often identified with their brand names to distinguish from other products in the market. The product that the researchers will offer to the community of balayan, batangas is a new cooler called, Battery Powered Cooler Box it is a kind of cooler that can store foods

72

and drinks in picnics and road trips. This product will hopefully help people because of its portability and reliability.

Product:

Figure 4.11 shows the battery powered cooler

Packaging Packaging came in all sorts of shape and sizes without much variation in the material, and the purpose of the packaging. The product will be packed well to catch the eyes of the market. Packaging will be most essential part of the product. The main goal of the packaging is to house the product with its additional equipment, and the instruction manual of the product. The researcher’s product will be packed similar to the packaging of appliances that are usually packed in a box. We will put the logo of our own company on the product to

73

establish a trademark of our own in order to be determined by the market. Product does not refer only to the box or wrapping of the product. It can also be a bundle of freebies or additional features that are packed together to pique the attention of the interested customers.

Positioning Positioning, in the context of a marketing battle plan, has three overlapping objective.

The first is enterprise perspective, the enterprise scans market environment and decide to position itself with the products that specifically address the needs of a chosen target market. Second, positioning has a competitive perspective. The enterprise has to differentiate and distinguish itself from competitors. Third, positioning takes the consumers perspective. Positioning is the way the customers perceive the enterprise and its product or services in their minds. The stronger the overlap is in these three perspectives, the more defined the positioning of an enterprise is in the market place.

Enterprises can establish their positioning either by starting with their own product creations or with their customers’ outcome expectations. The competitive landscape of the enterprise, relative to its market, can be clearly mapped out by laying out both the latitudinal and longitudinal market dimensions. First, the latitude lays out what is important to the different customer segments from their differing points of view while, longitude in the marketing map represents the product features and attributes of competitors in the marketplace.

Through positioning, we examine the advantages and disadvantages of the Battery Powered Cooler Box compared to the other competitors in the market.

Place Finding a good location and maximizing the potential of that location will be difficult. We needed a trustworthy establishment and location in the balayan, batangas since it’s where our target market is. We have multiple choices of establishment in balayan, but we needed an establishment where we can fully showcase our Battery Powered Cooler Box.

77

So we decided to choose the Abenson gadget and appliance store because of their accessibility and credibility as an authorized retailer.

Promotion Promotion is the explicit communication strategy adopted by an enterprise to elicit the patronage, loyalty, and support not only from its customers but also from its other significant stakeholders. It is a key element in putting across the benefits of your product or service to the customers. Well-designed marketing and promotional strategies ensure longterm success, bring in more customers and ensure profitability for businesses.

Promotion encompasses all the direct communication efforts of the enterprise, such as advertising, public relation campaigns, promotional tours, product offerings, point-of sale displays, websites, flyers, emails, letters, telemarketing and others. We ensure that the 78

quality of our product and the attractiveness of our packaging helps to improve the marketability of our product.

The researchers take advantage of the internet as a promotion because nowadays internet is the most popular source of information. We decided to create a Facebook page as a primary source of our promotion. Everyone can express their opinions, inquire, and share their experience regarding our service and product.

Facebook Page:

Figure 4.15 shows the promotion the researchers used to market their product

People People are the ultimate marketing strategy. They sell and push the product. People search hard to find the right market. They distribute, promote, price, and sell the products in the most attractive market places. People aims to please the customers through continuing

79

service and product enhancements long after the customers have bought the product. People are the regular contact points between the enterprise and its market

Peltier effect - the cooling of one junction and the heating of the other when electric current is maintained in a circuit of material consisting of two dissimilar conductors the effect is even stronger in circuits containing dissimilar semiconductors.

Heatsink - A heat sink is a passive heat exchanger that transfers the heat generated by an electronic or a mechanical device to a fluid medium, often air or a liquid coolant, where it is dissipated away from the device, thereby allowing regulation of the device's temperature at optimal levels.

DC Fan - Direct current fans, or DC fans, have a variable, uneven flow. In contrast,

alternating current fans, or AC fans, change direction 50 times a second in order to provide a constant flow.

Aluminum Composite Panel - is any structure made of three layers: a low-density core, and a thin skin-layer bonded to each side.

Handle - A handle is a small round object or a lever that is attached to a door and is used for opening and closing it.

Styrofoam - Styrofoam is a trademarked brand of closed-cell extruded polystyrene foam, commonly called "Blue Board" manufactured as foam continuous building insulation board used in walls, roofs, and foundations as thermal insulation and water barrier.

Background of the Problem

The reason to make a battery powered cooler is that all the other products in the markets are heavy, expensive and it can only be use at home and uses electricity from the wall plugs. So we decided to make a cooler box that runs on battery which can keep a beer or any types drinks cool during outdoor activities, since its portable it will be smaller, cheaper and easy to use

Though the refrigerator in late 1920s used a combination of chemicals that cause severe accidents involving gas leak we will use the Peltier module as a cooling system because it does not eject any harmful gas that can cause pollution. The thermoelectric module or peltier module does not only reduce the air pollution by not contributing to it but also reduce power consumption. After figuring out the cooling system we are going to use we pick Styrofoam as an insulator because of the trapped gas bubble that hinders hit to keep the temperature cold. Then we picked a good quality automotive battery as a power source to help the longevity of our cooler. The researchers will make a portable, power efficient, durable and environment friendly cooling system using the Peltier effect.

Summary of findings 1. Most respondent often go in an outdoor activities. 2. Lot of respondents goes in a picnic twice a year, some of them go once a year, and few of them go once a month. 3. The respondents bring cooler during an outdoor activity. 4. The size of the drinking bottle that the respondent usually brings is the medium size bottle or 1 liter bottle. 5. The respondents are interested in a cooler with fridge. 6. Respondents who are not interested want to try the product. 7. According to the respondent, medium is the prefer size for the product.

89

8. The respondents are willing to spend 1500-2000php for the product. 9. 6-9 hours is the respondent’s average use of coolers. 10. Respondent’s average water intake on a daily basis is 4-7 liters. 5.2Conclusions

Nowadays refrigerator became a common necessity in every home that truly improved the way we manage our food and beverage. During summer vacation many people go out of town on mountains and beach to hike or swim but drinking a warm soda is not as satisfying as drinking a cold one. So we the innovators decided to build a battery powered cooler that you can bring anywhere and every time you go to a mountains or beach. Our cooler will make sure to keep your drinks cold and preserve your food without using any single ice.

The reason to make a battery powered cooler is that all the other products in the markets are heavy, expensive and it can only be use at home and uses electricity from the wall plugs. So we decided to make a cooler box that runs on battery which can keep a beer or any types drinks cool during outdoor activities, since its portable it will be smaller, cheaper and easy to use. The researchers gather, processed, verified the sources, review, and evaluate the data that established the credibility of our study. We use different aspects so that our product acceptability in the market will be assured to increase. According to our findings, the respondent’s usually go in outdoor activities and that most of them are interested in our product. This shows that the Battery Powered Cooler Box is a highly marketable product. The following aspects will recognize the conclusion of the study:
