Computer Controlled Thermal Radiation and Light Radiation Unit

The Computer Controlled Thermal Radiation and Light Radiation Unit, has been designed to demonstrate the laws of radiant heat transfer and radiant heat exchange.

ATENG 12833 — Computer Controlled Thermal Radiation and Light Radiation Unit

(for main items)

• With this unit there are several options and possibilities:
• Main items: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
• Optional items: 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11.
• Let us describe first the main items (1 to 6):
• 1 ATENG 12833. Unit:
  Bench-top unit.
  Anodized aluminum frame and panels made of painted
  steel.
  Main metallic elements made of stainless steel.
  Diagram in the front panel with distribution of the
  elements similar to the real one.
  This unit consist on a metal plate with a resistance at one
  side and a lamp in another side. Lengthwise of the metal
  plate you can place the elements supplied with the unit.
  Heating element (ceramic), 500 W, computer controlled.
  Lamp 150 W, with diffuser.
• The unit is provided with accessories for light experiments Unit: ATENG 12833
  and radiation experiments.
• Light accessories:
• Luxmeter that allows to measure the intensity of the light:
• Scale: Resolution: Accuracy:
  0 to 1999 lux 1 lux
  2000 to 19990 10 lux
  20000 to 50000 100 lux 8%
  Selection of light Day, Tungsten, fluorescence or mercury
  Sensor Photodiode with filter of adjustment of filter
• Sample frequency: 0.4 s
• Work temperature: 0 to 50ºC
• Filters:
  They allow to filtrate the light in the experiments.
• There are:
  Three grey Neutral Density A153 filters.
  Grey Neutral Density A152 filter.
  Grey Neutral Density A154 filter.
  Plane surfaces
  Three filter portholes.
• Radiation accessories:
• Radiometer (50 x 50 mm, 5 mv (w/m2)). It allows to measure the intensity of the radiation.
  Planes surfaces. They are elements for studying the radiation and each one contains one
• temperature sensor:
  Polished aluminum.
  Anodized aluminum.
  Brass.
  Two black bodies.
  Variable slit or aperture. It allows to regulate the area of the radiation.
  Seven temperature sensors.
  Filter portholes
  Power measurement from the computer.
  Radiation measurement from the computer.
  Lux measurement from the computer.
• The complete unit includes as well:
  Advanced Real-Time SCADA.
  Open Control + Multicontrol + Real-Time Control.
  Specialized Control Software based on LabVIEW.
  National Instruments Data Acquisition board (250 KS/s, kilo samples per second).
  Calibration exercises, which are included, teach the user how to calibrate a sensor and
  the importance of checking the accuracy of the sensors before taking measurements. Filters
  Projector and/or electronic whiteboard compatibility allows the unit to be explained and
  demonstrated to an entire class at one time.
  Capable of doing applied research, real industrial simulation, training courses, etc.
  Remote operation and control by the user and remote control for technical
  support, are always included.
  Totally safe, utilizing 4 safety systems (Mechanical, Electrical, Electronic & Software).
  Designed and manufactured under several quality standards.
  Optional ICAI software to create, edit and carry out practical exercises, tests, exams,
  calculations, etc. Apart from monitoring user's knowledge and progress reached.
  This unit has been designed for future expansion and integration. A common expansion is
  the Scada-Net (ESN) System which enables multiple students to simultaneously Luxmeter
  operate many units in a network.
