Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for conditioning the atmosphere when testing engines, comprising an inlet duct connected to an engine intake, an outlet duct connected to the exhaust of the engine, a communication duct that connects the inlet duct to the outlet duct, a bypass valve in the inlet duct, a super-charging turbo assembly in the inlet duct, a heat exchanger in the outlet duct, and a turbocharger after the heat exchanger. The device further comprises a first three-way valve that connects the inlet duct to the outlet duct, an on/off valve in the outlet duct, a second three-way valve in the outlet duct, a control valve in a duct that connects the outlet duct to the atmosphere, and a section of the outlet duct that connects the exchanger to the communication duct.
