ATH ITALIA - COOLTOOL

EDV Cool Tool is a modular software that enables the design of refrigeration systems and the simulation of their behaviour by modifying operating conditions and/or components.‎ Thanks to a very high ability to adapt to the actual operating conditions of the systems, all supported by unmatched computing power for precision and accuracy, it has created a new standard in professional refrigeration and air-conditioning software.‎ FEATURES AND PERFORMANCES Cool Tool is available in 14 languages and structured in different modules: Module 1: Single stage Module 2: Dual stage Module 3: Multi-circuit Module 4: Glycol water Module 5: Multicircuit for circulating evaporators Module 6: Cells Module 1 CoolTool for designing refrigeration systems with 1-stage compressors.‎ dimensioning of steel or copper pipework for suction and discharge lines (steam, liquid, condensate), taking into account pressure drop, speed and operation;
