Abstract

Ice cream is widely sold by mobile ice-cream sellers. This study aims to determine the performance and energy consumption of a freezer machine for mobile ice-cream sellers using environmentally friendly refrigerant MC134 with a compressor capacity of 1/10 HP. This research was conducted using an experimental method. The size of the capillary tube using the Cap Tube 1.0.8.0 application program. The evaporator used is a bare tube type that is formed by a coil and wrapped around an ice cream box. The test is carried out by measuring the refrigerant temperature and pressure, the temperature in the ice cream box, and the electric current and voltage in the system. The results of the analysis of performance and energy consumption will also be compared if the system uses HFC134a refrigerant. From the test results, it was found that the optimum mass loaded in the system for refrigerant MC134 was 155 grams and the optimum mass for R-134a was 202 grams. The use of refrigerant MC134 is more efficient by 23.3%. The COP for MC134 refrigerant is 3.1 while the COP for R134a is 2.7. Energy consumption for MC134 is 83 kJ while for R134a it is 67.8 kJ.
