Abstract
Imperfect hydraulic oil quality Including oil temperature that is too high will cause the hydraulic oil to bubble. It causes the hydraulic system to stop working. Also in countries near the equator, The ambient temperature is quite high at 35-40 degrees Celsius, which is well known that the operating temperature of hydraulic oil should not exceed 70 degrees Celsius in equipment operation. The aim of this research was to focuses on the temperature reduction experiments of hydraulic oil by using a set of thermoelectric modules for cooling. Thermoelectric modules are environmentally friendly and compact devices that are easy to install. Additionally, they require low electrical power to generate cooling and do not contain refrigerants. This experiment created a simulation set of hydraulic system operations that can adjust the heat value of the temperature of the hydraulic oil. The study suggested that the temperature of the hydraulic oil could be reduced by 3-5 degrees Celsius at the flow rate. This helps in reducing air bubbles in the hydraulic oil and also extends the service life of the hydraulic oil.
