ABSTRACT 

This write up is a detailed of the process and formulation of plan for the physical realization of the construction of a mobile refrigerator.  
It is divided into chapters, which discussed extensively, the practical refrigeration cycle.
Chapter one discussed the brief historical sketch of the principle of the design, purpose of construction, importance attached and specification, statement and problems.
Chapter two discusses the literature review, which is the principle of the design as related to the past work of scientists and engineers.
Chapter three talks about the nature of materials selected and why they were preferable to other materials.
Chapter four portrayed the calculation aspect of the project and finally,
Chapter five discussed about cost analysis, moreover, under this chapter, the recommendation precautions, causes of faults and remedies, conclusion were also put into consideration.
