Cooltool - Modules

 

CoolTool Modules summary

This software system gives quick and easy results for direct practical use. It makes quick comparison between the big amount of CFC substitutes possible, and a lot of smaller and bigger calculations, from the psychrometric chart up to the complete design of a the air conditioning for a building.

Calculations of air flow rates, cooling capacities for cold rooms, and for air conditioning are possible. It designs one- and two stage compression circles and their parts in an easy way with the new and old refrigerants. Compound plants with direct evaporation, with secondary refrigerants, or with flooded evaporation are feasible up to 40 evaporators, or cooler.

After the estimation of the properties of the refrigerant there is a true scale h, log p - Diagram. The software considers the glide of the refrigerant blends by using the evaporation temperature to in the middle of the useable enthalpy.

All calculations are made in one clear window, with contains the main influence parameters. The power input because of the thermodynamic process for the estimation of the costs of performance and the selection for all necessary tubes will be done by the software. Changes in the dimensions of the tubes with be calculated immediately, and the influence on the main properties like filling amount, discharge temperature, necessary displacement of the compressor or total capacity will be displayed.

The results will be summed up in part lists for tubes, valves, aggregates and reductions, which makes the disposition of materials and die calculation of the plant costs easier. System flow diagrams and electric wireing are easy to make with the added symbols.
