meeting time: Monday Oct. 5
team present: Kevin Hawkins, Justin Khan, Skyler Olsen
topics discussed:
- New documents were released Friday, October 2nd. These documents outline a clear picture of what is required of the team. Points of interest include the size of the refrigerator (40L/1.45 cu.ft.), the place of installation (permanent, but I believe there is ample design room to make the refrigerator transportable), and that the refrigerator will not be refrigerating anything else.
- We further discussed the possibilities of thermoelectric cooling. Through my brief research, thermoelectric cooling seems very inefficient to cool 1.45 cu.ft. of liquid at 100 degrees F. The thermoelectric problem is one that needs further research and a more defined mathematical model
NOTE: I had said earlier in the week that we would meet up with Dr. Kelly. I will try to complete the necessary work to present to Dr. Kelly and keep everyone involved.
