With the increase in global warming levels day by day leading to the increase in average temperature throughout the year which makes people living in areas infested with load- shedding more hectic and troublesome. As the contemporary cooling method including Coolers and Air-conditioners do not work on the inverter for backup electricity purposes which make them useless as such during the peak heat hours. So, as to combat the problem with portability, economy and cost-effectiveness in mind the concept of alternative air conditioning using TEC while being used of the grid and rechargeable. While it is a common knowledge that co-efficient of performance of TEC is sub-par when compared to vapor compression air refrigeration used today but with optimized manufacturing techniques and forced convection of cold liquid increasing the effective cooling for the device and humidity controlling using moisture absorbent along with capillary tubing as thermal siphoning for heat reduction at the hot sink instead of air fin to reduce ambient heat radiation. Basically in this research we tried to increase the coefficient of performance of the Peltier Module using various techniques. The Module is also not power efficient , so in long run we can’t use plenty of them either two or three also we need to create the cooling effect . So keeping everything in mind we use the module accordingly to achieve the goal and make it a model for mass production
