Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
In the refrigeration and air conditioning lab, students assess various kinds of refrigeration systems such as vapour compression, vapour absorption, vortex tube, etc and evaluate their performance. They study the characteristics of heating and ventilation and analyze psychrometric processes. The cut section models of hermetically sealed rotary and reciprocating compressors are available to provide a thorough knowledge of various components, their purpose and maintenance. The disassembled window air-conditioner and a domestic refrigerator are also present to impart a practical understanding of their working principles.
The lab is equipped with the following facilities:
- Vapour compression test rig
- Vapour absorption test rig
- Vortex tube cooling apparatus
- Ventilation and air distribution setup
- Cut sections of rotary and reciprocating compressors
- Disassembled window air conditioner and domestic refrigerator
- Psychrometer
- Steam jet injection test rig
