ABSTRACT Technology is currently developing rapidly, one of which is the cool box. Cool boxes are used by humans to store food so that it lasts a long time. The cool box used so far uses peltier so it is safe for food. However, the peltier used only reaches a temperature of 19,5 0C. Therefore, so that the resulting temperature is maximized, it is necessary to add additional ingredients such as ice packs. Ice packs can lower the temperature of the cool box room. Ice packs are a very good material because they are easy to get and can be used repeatedly and ice packs are more durable than ice cubes. This study aims to determine the effect of cooling using peltier added ice packs to the cool box when it is turned on and off. In this study using the direct test method. The results of the research that has been done show that the cool box that only uses peltier when turned on reaches a temperature of 18,1 0C and the temperature of the tool is turned off 30,7 0C, while the cool box that uses peltier and ice packs when the tool is turned on reaches a temperature of -7,2 0C after the temperature of the tool is turned off until it reaches -5,4 0C, then the cool box that uses peltier and ice packs that contain frozen food reaches a temperature of -6.7 0C when the tool is turned on and then turns it off reaches a temperature of -3,5 0C. So the cool box that is added to the ice pack affects the cooling of food storage and can be used repeatedly. |
