AIR CONDITIONER SIMULATOR SIMUAIR
SIMUAIR simulates two generic versions of residential and light-commercial air conditioning systems, using either R-22 or R-410A refrigerant. These systems include a packaged unit with a capillary tube and PSC motor circuit, and a split-system with a thermostatic expansion valve and CSR motor circuit. Animated mechanical and electrical schematic diagrams of the simulated system are provided in real-time. The mechanical diagram shows refrigerant flow, as well as the liquid, vapor, liquid/vapor, and superheated vapor states of the refrigerant. In the electrical ladder diagram, the controls and switch contacts constantly change state as the system operates. Providing a means of visually tracing refrigerant and current flow during operation, makes it much easier for the trainee to understand how an air conditioner is supposed to work. Indoor and ambient temperatures, and relative humidity are adjustable and continuously updated and displayed on the screen. Settings for thermostat setpoint, limit switches, TXV, circuit breakers, and other controls may be changed by the trainee. With the capability of changing operating temperatures and relative humidity, a system may be observed under various environmental conditions; something very difficult to do with real mechanical equipment. Pressure-temperature charts, performance charts, specifications, and an electrical nomenclature, are available on-screen. 2
The trainee can zoom into the system to visually inspect various components, including dirt or ice on coils, and a dirty air filter. He can also listen to the compressor running. SIMUAIR provides easy-to-use point-and-click selection of meters and test points, and are saved to an Instrument Log to monitor the users troubleshooting skill. Temperatures may be displayed in either Fahrenheit (F) or Celsius (C), and pressures may be displayed in either imperial (psig) or metric
