    This document summarizes a student project that demonstrated cooling using sound waves. A group of mechanical engineering students at Saranathan College of Engineering built an experimental setup to convert sound energy into thermal energy. The setup used an acoustic driver system and a stack enclosed in a resonator tube. Testing showed the system was able to achieve a 10 degree Kelvin temperature difference across the stack, demonstrating air cooling. The project aims to show an alternative cooling method that is environmentally friendly as it works through air and does not require refrigerants.

    ABSTRACT: Nowadays the refrigeration system plays a significant role in air cooling, food preservation etc. It is now almost impossible to imagine life without refrigeration system. Currently, cooling is primarily achieved with vapor compression system that uses a specific refrigerant to maintain the required temperature level. Even though the vapor compression system is effectively used, engineers are constantly trying to find better alternatives. This project brings into focus on one possible alternative. This project is based on the principle of conversion of sound energy into thermal energy with the help of an acoustic driver system and a stack enclosed by a resonator tube. This system demonstrates the air cooling effect. It is an eco friendly system since this system works in an air medium (or any noble gas) and does not require any refrigerants. The aim of this project is to demonstrate the cooling effect using sound waves in a small scale. With an experimental setup, the possibility of achieving a temperature difference of 10 K across the stack is demonstrated. Keywords: Refrigeration, air cooling, acoustic driver, stack, resonator, eco-friendly.
