Charge Air Simulation

Ideal for charge air simulation and/or conditioning. Simulate charge air supply for engine dynamometer testing.  Quantify the effects of pressure vs. temperature and humidity on engine performance.  Programmable temperature and flow ranges with humidity control.

Features

  • Variable flow blower supply to control charge air through test piece
  • Temperature set by electronically modulated heaters
  • Pressure set by automatic or semi automatic regulator
  • Full automation ability capable with option. Ability to add sensors and inputs to collect all the data points required
  • Data collection and computation through PLC based touch screen, also available through LabVIEW® automation software
