See the attachments tab above for the reports from the old Duke, Vanderbilt, and UC San Diego design teams.
Spring 2008 Duke Team
created by Odelia Ghodsizadeh, Scott Kasper, Sean McGuire, and Brian Robinson for the BME262 design course with Dr. Malkin
- the team is designing for a 1-2L cavity at 2-8degC for less than $300
- shaker/solar-powered fridge to deliver 6W with an energy storage mechanism
- initial testing on a soda-fridge indicates that it takes about ten hours at 16W or five hours at 23W to reach 8degC
