Mustang Dyno 1100SE
Any dyno will spin the tires, do some
figuring and print a graph. But some can do
more than others.
Mustang Dynamometers are unique because they
are loading dynamometers designed to duplicate
real world operating conditions. The patented
control system uses eddy current power
absorbers to load a vehicle exactly the way it
would be loaded on the street -- including
wind resistance, which is a significant factor
in high-speed testing. Mustang dynos also
feature a load cell to measure the power being
applied to the rolls. Without going into a lot
of theory, a Mustang dyno gives you a real
world tune, every time.
The term dynamometer is commonly defined as -
"an instrument for measuring mechanical
force", with force being commonly defined as -
"any external agent that causes a change in
the motion of a free body, or that causes
stress in a fixed body". In the case of the
chassis dyno, the purpose at hand is to
measure the rotational force of the driven
wheels mounted to the vehicle under test. This
is typically achieved via a series of rollers
- which when coupled to a vehicle's tires
resembles a toothless gear arrangement. In
many cases, an absorption device is
incorporated into the roller arrangement so as
to allow for "steady state" testing
