    High global temperatures have increased the occurrence of heat waves in most parts of the world, and this has increased the utility cost as more cooling devices are being produced for adaptation. This study deals with the performance evaluation of a portable water-cooling system using thermoelectric peltier modules. The experimental setup involved measuring the temperature reduction of water samples for different volumes (500 ml, 750 ml, and 1000 ml) over 60 minutes at equal interval. The peltier module TEC1-12706 was used with voltage of 12 V. The heat sink was used to enhance the absorbed heat transfer in the system while Arduino Uno serves as the central control unit. Results showed that effective temperature reductions were achieved with cooling capacities (Qc) for different volumes of water. The system coefficient of performance (COP) ranges from 0.12 to 0.13.
