This is a device that uses R1234yf, a refrigerant developed as a substitute for HFC-134a. Compared to HFC-134a, it has a lower ozone depletion potential and global warming potential, making it an environmentally friendly refrigerant. The refrigeration system using R1234yf (refrigerant for car air conditioners and vending machines) is clearly arranged on a tabletop base. The high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas (superheated vapor) discharged from the compressor passes through the dryer, solenoid valve, and sight glass, where it is cooled and condensed into a liquid (subcooled liquid) in the condenser. The low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant (saturated liquid) that passes through the capillary tube (expansion valve) via the sight glass enters the evaporator, where it undergoes heat exchange with air, providing latent heat of vaporization to the air. The vaporized refrigerant (superheated vapor) then returns to the compressor through the sight glass and solenoid valve. A P-h diagram (pressure-enthalpy diagram) is created from the measured pressures and temperatures of each component, and the coefficient of performance (COP) of this device is calculated from the inlet pressure and temperature of the compressor and the compressor efficiency.

Pressure measurement holes spaced 25cm apart along the channel allow for analysis by connecting to a separately sold manometer or pressure display device. The FC300 comes with necessary equipment for experiments, including a sluice gate and weir, depth gauge, pitot tube for total pressure measurement, and float switch, along with an experimental manual. Additionally, various options (sold separately) are available to suit experimental purposes. Moreover, the included dedicated software (VDAS) can display and save water flow rate and channel slope data in real-time to a PC (sold separately).

This is a compact tabletop experimental device designed to test the operation characteristics of two centrifugal pumps in series and parallel operation, or a single pump. The device consists of electric motors (variable speed) that drive each pump individually, a transparent acrylic water storage tank and valves (for each pump inlet and outlet), pressure sensors (for each pump inlet and outlet), and a flow sensor (for the drainage outlet). The impeller part of each pump is designed with a transparent cover for observation, allowing for demonstrations of cavitation. The included control box allows for variable adjustment of motor speed and digitally displays rotation speed (rpm), torque (N.m), output (W), pressure (bar), flow rate (L/s), and temperature. Additionally, the included data acquisition software VDAS can collect and analyze various data in real-time on a PC (sold separately). *There is also an analog type of experimental device similar to the H53V. H52 Series and Parallel Pump Experimental Device (Constant Speed) The H52 operates with a constant motor speed and is composed of an analog pressure gauge and a float-type flow meter.

This is a small wind tunnel experimental device with a test section of 100x50mm. It has a very compact design, allowing for easy movement and storage when not in use. It can be used in a wide range of experiments in combination with auxiliary equipment for demonstrations in lectures, practical training in laboratories, and student research projects. The air discharged from the blower flows into the test section through the rear duct, upper chamber, honeycomb, and converging section. The wind speed is derived using Bernoulli's theorem from the pressure in the test section and chamber. This device comes with eight types of experimental setups available for separate purchase, ranging from AF11 to AF18, which can be easily attached to the AF10. Each experimental setup can be purchased individually, and we encourage you to consider configurations that meet your needs.
