UMD Staff Are the Students in a “Cool” New CEEE-Led Training

CEEE Director Reinhard Radermacher gathered his students around an exposed air-conditioner unit that had been wheeled into a University of Maryland classroom for a lesson on the vapor compression cycle. With the equipment’s inner workings visible, the mechanical engineering professor pointed out the condenser, compressor, evaporator and other parts, and explained how they work together. Senior Faculty Specialist Jan Muehlbauer assisted with the air-conditioning demo, explaining the mechanics further.
