printable version Heat pumps
 
Heat pump 1000W with reservoir
   
Heat pumps
Heat pumps allow the utilization of free environmental energy. Their build-up is equivalent to a cooling unit. With the help of electric energy they can use existing free environmental energy from wells, soils or ambient atmospere for heating purposes, by pumping it on higher temperature level. The test stand demonstrates practically the dependencies of the thermo-dynamical cycle process. Above photo shows on right heat pump producing hot water for air-heating (Test stand "Fan- and thermic measurements").
 
Systems:
  • 1000W compressor
  • Fan and thermic heat pump
  • Air-cooled evaporater
  • Coaxial condensator avoids water generation
  • 50l reservoir
  • Efficiency up to 4
 

Measuring systems:

The measuring devices are digitally connected to the internal controller, sending serial data to the comprised portable PC. Stand control and data acquisition can be performed by Windows-software. Measured quantities are:

  • 3 x temperatures: Before and behind condensator and reservoir
  • Temperature and pressure of refrigerant agent
  • Water flow rate
  • Electrical power consumption
 

Extension:

The stand is moveable and can be connected to a warm water consumer like Test stand "Fan and thermic measurements"

Dimensions:
1.1m x 0.8m x1.6m
Weight: 50 kg
Services: 240 VAC, water

log p/h diagram of heat pump:
 
Heat pumps
qc is the effective heat with the niveau tc.

qo is the for cooling processes usable refrigerating capacity.

In the diagram you can see that efficiency E depends on tc and to and on the quality of the plant's devices. This dependency can be shown with this test stand.

printable version Solar Collector
 
Solar Collector
Natural solar radiation 0,5 m²
This test stand implements a solar collector for warm water generation. There are two different versions available: One for natural solar radiation and outdoor use and another for indoor use with artificial radiation. The scheme shows the build-up. T1,T2 and T3 are temperature sensors. Valve V1 controls the water flow-rate. V2 provides water outlet and V3 controls the water supply. The heat-up test demonstrates all influencing variables. The collector size is 0,5 (0,25) m², the flow direction is from down to up. The heated water flows into the accumulator. The pump sucks from the accumulator's bottom and feeds the water through a rotameter into the collector.
 
Systems:
  • Accumulator 2l
  • Infeed and outlet of the water
  • Flow control
  • Impressive results are obtained within one hour with natural radiation.
  • Power absorption > 500 W/m²
  • Temperatures > 70° C
  • Artificial radiation with vitalux spectrality (nearly natural); 4 thyristor controlled lamps
  • Inclination horizontally and variable distance.

Control and measuring systems:

The plant comprises usual sensors, connected to a long time data-logger with radio controlled clock. The logger can be connected serially to a PC and the logged and current data can be read out and evaluated with the included Windows-software. Measured quantities are:

  • 3 x Temperatures
  • Flow-rate
  • Real time calculation of derivative quantities i.e. power.
 

Extensions:

Moveable test stand, connectable to Heat pump.
