<abstract language="eng">This research is a follow up of the work titled, ˇ°Design Analysis of Solar Powered Photovoltaic Refrigeratorˇ±. The solar refrigerator was designed to suite Port Harcourt, Nigeria meteorological data. The geographical position of Port Harcourt being at latitude 4040ˇŻN and longitude 7010ˇŻE. Average solar irradiation of 4.23kWh/m2/day and sunshine hour of 4.25 were prevalent at the position where the Photovoltaic refrigerator would be mounted. The compressor was rated at 0.07kW. The design drawings for the system, the detailed drawings and the assembly drawings were produced with solid works software.</abstract>
