    Dynamometers are devices used to measure force, torque, or power. They can measure the power produced by engines or required to operate machines like pumps. Dynamometers are classified as either absorption or universal types. Absorption dynamometers only absorb power, while universal dynamometers can both absorb and deliver power. Dynamometers can also be classified by their application, such as engine dynamometers which measure at the engine, or chassis dynamometers which measure at the drive wheels of a vehicle. They are further classified by the type of absorption unit used.

    DYNAMOMETERS

    What is a dynamometer?
    Classification of dynamometer.

    Principles of operation of torque


    power(absorbing) dynamometers.

    Dynamometer
    It is a device for measuring force, moment of force (torque), or power.

    For example, the power produced by an engine, motor or other rotating


    prime mover can be calculated by simultaneously measuring torque and
    rotational speed (RPM).
    A dynamometer can also be used to determine the torque and power
    required to operate a driven machine such as a pump.

    A dynamometer that is designed to be driven is called an absorption or


    passive dynamometer.
    A dynamometer that can either drive or absorb is called a universal or active
    dynamometer.

    Classification of dynamometers.

    In addition to classification as Absorption and Universal as described above , dynamometers


    can also be Classified in other ways
    A dyno that is coupled directly to an engine is known as an engine
    dyno.
    A dyno that can measure torque and power delivered by the
    power train of a vehicle directly from the drive wheel or
    wheels), is known as a chassis dyno.
    Dynamometers can also be classified by the type of absorption
    unit or absorber/driver that they use.
