Descripción
A laboratory facility designed to evaluate thermal fluids under representative operating conditions, at an intermediate scale between the physicochemical characterisation of small samples and validation using larger test benches.
It is particularly suited to the study of fluids with unconventional properties, such as phase-change materials, non-Newtonian fluids, and highly viscous fluids, whose behaviour cannot be adequately predicted through characterisation using small sample volumes.
The facility enables the analysis of the fluid's heat capacity and its stability under thermal and mechanical stress.
Equipment
- Thermostatic bath (1 kWt cooling capacity, 2 kWt heating capacity)
- Plate heat exchanger
- Gear pump suitable for viscous fluids
- 10 L storage tank
- Instrumentation for thermal and hydraulic measurements
- Data acquisition system
Servicios
