Simulated laboratories are changing the nature of laboratory activities, and there is a long-running debate about the value of hands-on versus simulated laboratories. Hands-on advocates emphasise design skills, while simulated laboratories advocates focus on conceptual understanding. Interest in simulated laboratories versus hands-on has increased based on two factors: advancement in technology and cost pressure. Educational goals of hands-on laboratories activities focus on conceptual understanding, professional skills, design skills and social skills, but not all the equipment provide professional skill to the students.

Using these equations and experimental data MATLAB/Simulink models for every state of air property were created. The MATLAB/Simulink models were combined and verified with experimental results. The simulation results show that the experimental results are compatible with the experimental results for each state. 2021 Conference or Workshop Item PeerReviewed text en https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/56602/1/56602.pdf Development of HVAC Virtual Laboratory (HV-LAB version 1.0) / Mohd Faez Zainol, Ts.
