The basal part of the stem was submitted to a transient controlled bending at constant displacement rate using a motorized dynamometer. |
Finally, the engine is connected to a dynamometer, which simulates actual driving conditions by varying the resistance against the spinning engine. |
According to the company, the engine has done more than 3.7 million miles on a dynamometer and 1.8 million miles in actual vehicle testing. |
Results may be specific to the isokinetic dynamometer used, population of interest, testing position, and data processing. |
The base of the stem was surrounded with an inextensible strap linked to a motorized dynamometer, allowing controlled basal bending. |
First, under the testing conditions described, it is not possible for the dynamometer to measure the locomotive's maximum drawbar pull. |
