AYVA offers teaching equipment for refrigeration covering the fundamental theories associated with thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer – enabling students to understand HVAC environmental control in the real industrial and consumer world!

Environmental Control Teaching Equipment
The air conditioning and refrigeration (HVAC and R) industry designs, builds, maintains and repairs essential indoor comfort and cooling systems including heating, ventilation and air conditioning. The expanding markets for refrigeration and air conditioning and changing technology, has created a growing need for training.

Our partner in England, TecQuipment (TQ) offers refrigeration training solutions and experiments that allow students to comprehend the workings of cooling towers, refrigeration and air conditioning; utilizing psychrometric and P-h charts.

TecQuipment Air Conditioning Trainer – EC-1501

The unit features an air-cooled condenser unit connected to an evaporator located in an air duct. The air duct contains relative humidity and temperature sensors on both sides of the evaporator. A small fan provides air flow down the duct and can be manually adjusted.

The refrigeration circuit features high and low pressure gauges, a pressure switch, sight glass, filter dryer and TEV valve. The circuit also includes pressure transducers that connect to the instrumentation.

Four thermocouples placed around the refrigeration circuit allow observation of temperatures, these can be used for the calculation of potential super heating and sub-cooling.

Our partner in France, ERIDÈS offers a unique solution with transparent walls which lets student watch the visible condensation and evaporation allowing for the understanding of the cycle processes.

ERIDÈS Refrigeration Cycle Demonstration Unit – MCFC10

This refrigeration cycle training unit allows for measurement of flow rate, pressure, temperature and more.

The fluid enthalpy chart is transposed onto a transparency at the centre of the unit allowing for rapid analysis of the fluid state parameters at any given point.

Transparent walls allow visibility on all sides while protecting both the equipment and its users. The visible condensation and evaporation allows for the understanding of the cycle processes. Once the machine has reached steady state, measurements can be taken and can be used even after the machine has been turned off.
