    Design Software Suggestions



    Hi folks!

    I'm new to this site and just now registered. I've been out of refrigeration design for almost 10 years and have an opportunity to get back into it. I've done system testing since that time, but not at the design level. Back when I was doing it, I used a program called R&R Supply and liked it. I have their old number and called them only to find it disconnected. Does anyone know what happened to them? Are they gone or bought out? Hopefully not gone because they had a fine program that served me well. What else is out there that is widely used for compressor based systems that can simulate evaporators and condensers? I don't necessarily trust freeware and shareware stuff out there since I don't know what I'm getting or how accurate. Any suggestions or leads to R&R Supply would be great.

    Not fully sure of what you want out of the software but have you tried CoolPack, it is free but is very well respected.

    Also, welcome to the forum.
