What is the Principle of a Chassis Dynamometer?
1 Answers
The principle of a chassis dynamometer is to use rollers to simulate a road surface, where various resistances encountered by a vehicle during normal steady-speed driving are simulated through a loading device. The functions of a chassis dynamometer include: 1. Measuring the output power, torque, and speed of the vehicle's drive wheels; 2. Used for vehicle load debugging and diagnosing faults that occur under load conditions; 3. Accurately and quickly detecting the performance of various systems and components of the vehicle. The main components of a chassis dynamometer are the roller mechanism, power absorption device, control and measurement system, and auxiliary devices. The role of the chassis is to support and mount the vehicle's engine and its various components and assemblies, forming the overall shape of the vehicle, bearing the engine's power, and ensuring normal driving.
