How Does a Fridge Work Without a Compressor

Instead of relying on a refrigerant, compressor, and evaporator to keep cool, it simply uses water and CO2, plus a unique solid state cooler. … They’re called thermoelectric coolers and depend on the Peltier effect, which removes heat by passing electrical current through the meeting point of two conductive materials.

How do non compressor fridges work?

Unlike compressor fridges, 3-way refrigerators do not have a compressor unit as a means of cooling. Their cooling power comes from a gas flow exchange system, which is located at the back of the fridge. The gas flow exchange system extracts heat from the back of the fridge and uses it to cool the internal temperature.

How can I cool my fridge without a compressor?

An internal fan will circulate cool air inside of the refrigeration cabinet, while an external fan will help dissipate heat outside of the unit.
