Computerized Re-Circulating Type Air Conditioner Trainer

Description

This machine simulates both industrial and domestic air conditioning practice and includes variable temperature and humidity control systems. Students can investigate and evaluate all the effects likely to be met in an air conditioning plant.

The test rig is portable trolley mounted, housed on a MS frame tube with front panel, surrounded by a transparent “c” duct where the air is allowed to re-circulate. Wet & dry bulbs are provided at suitable points inside the duct. The evaporator is air-cooled type, which is placed inside the duct.

A small steam generation unit is provided for humidification and cooling provided for de-humidification. The panel consists of all the necessary instruments and components like voltmeter, ammeter, and temperature inductor energy meter Rotameter, pressure/compound gauges, and LP/HP cutout. The unit is fitted with a flow diagram that illustrates the constructional and operational features.

Experiments you can perform

1. Determine the COP of the air-conditioning system
2. Study heating, cooling, humidification and dehumidification processes on the psychrometric chart
3. Determine the sensible heat factor
