Computerized ICE Plant Trainer
Description & Specification
Technical Specifications
The The unit enables the students to study the Basic Principals of ice plant cycle within a short period. The test rig is designed for the study of thermodynamics of vapour Compression refrigeration cycle by way of demonstration and experimentation. It has a facility to measure various parameters for experimentation. Ice cans are kept in liquid tank, which is cooled by the refrigerant evaporator. As conventional ice plants take 12-24 hours to complete the cycle, this ice plant is specially designed to demonstrate process of ice formation to be complete within period of 4 hours and hence it is most suitable for laboratory use.
The present set-up has a facility to interface the system with computer, which enables to log the experimental data-using computer. The educational software and data-logging package has been developed for unit.
