ENGINEERING LAB EQUIPMENT LHP 601 AVIATION & AERODYNAMICS The LHP-601 laboratory covers all areas, theoretical and practical, concerning the basic principles of Aviation and Aerodynamics including Aeronautic products designed for education and training AF series. The laboratory consists of a set of simulators and trainers listed on the right of this page (any PCs required are not included - provided locally by reseller). The laboratory deals with the AF series of educational equipment giving valuable hands-on experience, whether used by lecturers to demonstrate aerodynamic basic principles or advanced ideas or by students for project work. AF series offers this compact lab solution since the hands-on experience is not always possible or practical with large-scale industrial or complex research facilities. All the Aerodynamics systems operate with an integrated data acquisition system connecting to a personal computer offering working facilities to the students. The laboratory’s equipment is accompanied by the appropriate software to run interactively with PC workstations, wherever this is applicable. When an available program interfaces the PC with a simulator, it offers support in all the above training procedures and creates realistic simulations. The Lab consists of 2 sections: The Aerodynamics Lab equipment The Aviation systems simulators. The Aerodynamics lab equipment are custom made based on the needs of the Institution. It is usually addressing higher education laboratory needs and not vocational schools. You can see here some applications addressed by our equipment. For further info on Aerodynamic laboratory equipment please contact us with your requirements. The Aviation simulators are provided for training in actual sub-systems of a standard commercial airplane. A simulator is an educational system designed in metal vertical frame or bench-top block configuration, so the students have the capability to watch the theoretical and practical study of the Aviation systems include color mimic diagrams that clearly shows the structure of the system and allows the location of components on it. The display of the information available on the PC monitor allows the continuous monitoring of the didactic process. The operational conditions are entered by the students. The insertion of faults is carried out by either the software application or with switches. A simulator or a trainer is accompanied by relevant software to enable the student to follow step-by-step the theory and the exercise. The whole exercise procedure is carried out on the simulators. The system is accompanied by technical manuals for theory and exercises. Each one of the lab equipment is described hereinafter. Theory concepts are presented by the teacher in presentation slides and the system also offers a student response system (optionally) on theoretical and practical quizzes, tests or exams which also the teacher can create.
