Laboratory for Thermodynamics and Energy Technology
Thermodynamics is a basic course that belongs to the curriculum's required subjects. At present, the practical training in Thermodynamics consists of the following three experiments:
- Temperature measurement procedures
- Vapor-liquid phase equilibrium (measuring the vapor pressure curve of carbon dioxide)
- Processes in humid air
The experiments are designed such that students can conduct them on their own.
Energy Technology is an elective course for which the lab provides experimenal set-ups and testing equipment for the following issues:
- Thermal heat pumps
- Combined heat and power units
- Heat exchanger
- Thermography
Equipment
- General lab measurement instrumentation to measure electric variables
- Testing equipment for the Temperature Measurement practical training
- Testing equipment to measure the vapour pressure curve of carbon dioxide
- Experiamental set-up Humid Air
- Heat pump
- Several thermographic systems
- Gas-powered combined heat and power unit
- Steam-powered combined heat and power unit
- Experiamental set-up heat transfer test rig (under construction)
- Experiamental set-up shell-and-tube heat exchanger
