The creep rupture test is a destructive test method for determining the material behaviour (creep) at constant test temperature (room temperature and below) and after prolonged exposure to a constant load. Components that are subjected to long-term constant loads deform plastically. This material behaviour is called creep.
Features:
Experiments at or below room temperature are possible
Typical phenomena of creep processes
Learning Objectives And Experiments:
Influence of temperature and load on the creep
Creep in specimens of various materials
Record a straintime diagram (creep curve)
Load and recovery in plastics.
The Electric Motor Troubleshooting Learning System used in conjunction with the Basic Electrical Machines Learning System, covers the testing and troubleshooting of AC and DC motors using a multimeter and a megger meter. The Electric Motor Troubleshooting Learning System includes a motor connection box to practice hands-on skills such as troubleshooting faults in a DC motor and AC single-phase and three-phase motors, evaluating DC electric motor commutator and brush health, and using a multimeter to test an AC motor start/run capacitor. The skills and knowledge covered by this learning system will prove invaluable for industrial maintenance technicians or anyone working in a field that uses AC and/or DC motors. Learning systems feature real-world, industry-grade components for durability that will stand up to frequent use and to allow learners to gain real-world competencies. This learning system requires a digital multimeter, and a megger meter. Electric Motor Troubleshooting Learning System covers major topics like AC and DC motor failures, common methods of diagnosing these failures by using a multimeter and megger meter, and troubleshooting these failures.

A stream of air is passed across the top of the capillary tube, with a stationary layer of air above the liquid surface, creating a partial pressure difference between the liquid surface and the flowing air stream. Measurement of how this phase boundary changes with time enables the molar mass transfer rate to be determined. As vapour diffuses from the liquid into the air stream, the amount of liquid in the tube reduces and the phase boundary between the liquid and the air drops.
A small quantity of the volatile liquid to be investigated is placed in a capillary tube, which is positioned in a heated metal block. The block is heated by an electric cartridge heater and kept at a constant temperature using an electronic control loop.

The Fluidization And Heat Transfer unit consists of a glass cylinder with a bottom chamber and a top assembly. The bottom chamber has as a built-in air distributor. The distributor can be replaced by a locally designed one for students and other investigations. Fluidization And Heat Transfer bench top equipment is for studying the behavior of a fluidized bed and heat transfer coefficient of a hot surface in a fluidized bed. The top assembly consists of an air filter and a heating element, temperature probes and a pressure probe. Compressed air from an outside source is supplied to the bottom chamber. The air fluidizes the bed material and escapes to the atmosphere through the top filter. A small air compressor is provided. The glass cylinder assembly is attached to a panel through the top assembly and can be easily removed and installed. The glass cylinder is partially filled with granular bed material. The air flow rate is measured by a rotameter. A water manometer measures pressure drop in the fluidized bed. The heating element and, temperature probes can move up and down at any position in the glass cylinder. Safety features include overheating and overpressure. A heating element is provided in the glass cylinder. Temperature probes are provided for measurement of heating element surface, fluidized bed and air inlet to the bottom chamber.

The air conditioning and ventilation system includes a filter element, a fan with controlled speed, a direct evaporator as air cooler, an electric air heater and humidification by steam humidifier. The experimental setup represents a real air conditioning and ventilation system. The system capacity is sufficient to climatise a laboratory room. The air conditioning controller controls the temperature and air humidity independent of each other. The following functions are possible: heating / cooling and humdifiying / dehumidifying. For this purpose the active components can be run either manually individually or via a central PLC air conditioning controller in automatic operation. Pressure losses can be measured at each section of the duct. Via time programs, operation is possible dependent on the time of the day or the day of the week, as in reality.

A solution flows, by falling, into mixing tank where also a noise solution is sent by falling from tank called Noise. Thanks to solenoid valves and and manual valves and the control the two flows is achieved, and measured directly by means of flow meters and. The purpose of the process is to control the pH of a solution initially held in tank called Main. Stirrer allows to get homogeneous solutions inside process tank. The pH of the solution present in mixing tank is measured by means of probe converted into electrical signal and supplied to electrical unit by means of signal transmitter. From sampling tank it is possible to take a sample of the controlled solution held in tank in order to measure the pH with other gauges.
