Dynamometers are devices that simultaneously measure torque and rotational speed of engines or motors to calculate power output. They provide accurate performance measurements and help manufacturers improve efficiency. Power absorption dynamometers transmit power to a load coupled to the engine, where power is indicated on a scale. Common types include hydraulic dynamometers, eddy current dynamometers, and water brake dynamometers.

1. A dynamometer or "dyno" for short, is a device for simultaneously measuring the torque and rotational speed (RPM) of an engine, motor, or other rotating prime mover so that its instantaneous power may be calculated. 2. One of the main advantages of using dynamometers is their ability to provide accurate and reliable measurements of engine performance. This can help manufacturers improve the efficiency and reliability of their products. 3. Electrical power measurement is a method of measuring the power in a circuit, which is expressed in watts. 4. In power absorption dynamometers the power is transmitted to the load coupled to the engine after it is indicated on some scale. These are also called torque meters.
Part II. Identification (2 pts. Each)
_____________ 1. are devices used to measure the power output of an engine or other rotating machinery. _____________ 2. is one of the simplest dynamometers for measuring power output (brake power). It is to attempt to stop the engine using a brake on the flywheel and measure the weight which an arm attached to the brake will support, as it tries to rotate with the flywheel. _____________ 3. is a device that is used to measure the power or torque of an engine or other rotating machinery. _____________ 4. the measure of electrical current flow through an electrical conductor, measured in amperes. _____________ 5. active, real, or true power. The power that is consumed by the load. This measurement takes the power factor into account.
