Refrigeration & Air Conditioning

The vapour-compression refrigeration system is the most common refrigeration system used today. RA1 is a computer controlled vapour-compression refrigeration system with automatic recording of appropriate process variables using an integral USB interface device. This allows the student to gain a thorough understanding of the refrigeration process by changing the operation of different parts of the process and recording the response of the complete system.

RA2 is a fully instrumented bench mounted air condition duct for teaching all aspects of air conditioning systems.

RA3 is a floor standing unit, with all the facilities of RA2 plus a recirculation facility via an enclosed chamber. Some of the air exiting the chamber can be recycled back into the conditioning duct.
