This lab contains two cantilever beams, vibrating beam and a damping beam, the First Order Response Lab, and a Universal Data Acquisition System(UDAS).
Validyne’s unique Damping Lab give students a “hands on” way to experience and learn the measurement of time response as a function of static loading. When connected to the Universal Data Acquisition System(UDAS), the Damping Lab allows students to make measurements, graphs, and calculations to find the amount of critical damping in the system. The Validyne Damping Lab consists of a cantilever beam, an adjustable damper, and an accelerometer.
Consisting of a vibrating cantilever beam, an adjustable damper, and an accelerometer, the Validyne Cantilever Beam Lab allows for the measurement of natural frequencies and the effect of damping on the decaying rate of vibrations. When connected to the Universal Data Acquisition System(UDAS), this solution enables students to make measurements, graphs, and calculations to find the amount of critical damping in the system.
This easy to use lab contains everything needed to demonstrate the dynamic first-order response of a thermal system to a step change. Our First Order Response Lab includes a temperature sensor, thermos, and fixtures that allow students to record, then graph the response to a sudden change in temperature. The Universal Data Acquisition System(UDAS), with real-time graphing, provides all the required sensor power and linearization plus records the readings directly in Vdc, degrees C or F.
