    A dynamometer is a device that measures torque and power by applying resistance. There are two main types: absorption dynamometers, which fully absorb the engine's energy through friction and heat; and transmission dynamometers, which transmit power to another device for measurement without wasting energy through friction. Common dynamometers include the Prony brake, rope brake, belt transmission, epicyclic, and torsion types.

    Dynamometers

    Dynamometers
    A Dynamometer is a brake but in addition, it has
    a device to measure frictional resistance.
    Knowing the frictional resistance, we may obtain
    the torque transmitted and hence the power of
    the engine.
    Types of Dynamometers
    1. Absorption Dynamometer
    i) Prony brake dynamometer
    ii) Rope brake dynamometer
    2. Transmission Dynamometer

    ii) Epicyclic dynamometer
    iii) Torsion Dynamometer
    Absorption Dynamometer
    • In the Absorption dynamometers, the entire energy
    or power produced by the engine is absorbed by the
    friction resistances of the brake and it is transformed
    into heat, during the process of measurement.
    • Used for measurement of moderate powers only.

    Transmission Dynamometer
    In the Transmission dynamometers, the energy is not
    wasted in friction but is used for doing work. The
    energy or power produced by the engine is transmitted
    through dynamometer to some other machines where
    power developed is suitably measured.
