Eddie Carnet dynamometer
Engine power and torque measuring device (internal combustion, electric)
Eddie Carnet dynamometer:
A dynamometer is used to measure the power and torque of any rotary engine or the amount of force required to rotate any mechanism. Eddycarnet 190 kW dynamometer of Dina company is an absorption dynamometer and is used for all passenger car engine applications.
Basic principles of dynamometer operation
There are two main parts in dynamometers, one part is called the rotor and the central axis, which is connected to the motor with a coupling. The second part is called the stator or the fixed body, which is completely suspended and is connected to the dynamometer by means of a specific arm.
Using a medium fluid or electromagnetic braking force, the rotor is held by the stator and the stator reaction force is measured using a dynamometer. The amount of torque is calculated from the product of force multiplication along the length of the arm.
This brake is an eddy current brake. This dynamometer is only suction and works based on the eddy current law. In this dynamometer, the stator part is wound and is excited by electricity and produces a magnetic field .
Applications
Eddy Carnet dynamometer is used to measure the power and torque of all types of combustion and electric engines.

Eddie Carnet dynamometer accessories
Eddie Carnet’s dynamometer needs the following peripherals for complete setup.
Dynamometer coil power control device:
This device supplies the direct current of the dynamometer. The input power of this device is alternating current of 220 volts. This device has an analog command input to control the output direct current.
In different working conditions, the engine of the dynamometer control device (inhibition) sends an analog control signal to the power control device of the dynamometer, and finally, this device provides the required direct current for the dynamometer.
Calibration weights:
For the calibration of the dynamometer, calibration weights with the approval of valid laboratories are needed.
Installation and packaging information
The installation and packaging information of Eddy Carnet dynamometer includes the following items.
Installation information:
At the time of installing the engine on the dynamometer, care must be taken to measure and control the alignment of the engine and dynamometer using accurate methods, so that the slack axis does not cause additional load on the dynamometer bearings.
