Abstract

This research was conducted to analyze the use of R-600a in undercounter applications. The use of R-600a refrigerant is an effort to save energy and reduce the Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and Global Warming Potential (GWP). Testing was carried out at an ambient temperature of 24℃ and temperature storage setup was 0 ℃. Testing was carried out using a load of 33.245 kg of cabbage. The results of this research showed that the energy consumption of the under-counter chiller decreased by 6%. The decrease in electrical energy consumption is due to the refrigerant pressure on the suction and discharge side of the compressor when using R-600a refrigerant is lower than R-134a, but it makes COP decrease by 2%. R-600a can be recommended for under-counter chillers because R-600a is an environmentally friendly hydrocarbon, has low ODP and GWP values, and is energy efficient.
