Studi Eksperimental Smart Food Container Menggunakan Thermoelectric Cooler Dan Heat Pipe Berbasis Internet Of Things
ABSTRACT
Food waste is a global issue caused by the decline in food quality due to improper storage. This study aims to evaluate the power consumption and calculate the Coefficient of Performance (COP) of a Smart Food Container using a Thermoelectric Cooler (TEC) and Heat Pipe based on the Internet of Things (IoT). The system is designed to maintain food temperature under both cold and warm conditions. Experiments were conducted both indoors and outdoors with cold and warm water samples of 250 ml, 500 ml, and 750 ml. The results showed that the system's power consumption ranged from 12 to 55 Watts, depending on the type of power source and environmental conditions. The highest COP value of 1.73 was achieved using a motorcycle battery power source in a cold indoor environment. The system also demonstrated good thermal efficiency and low power consumption, making it suitable for small-scale portable and energy-efficient applications.
