Dynamometer: Working, Types, Applications, Advantages & Disadvantages
A dynamometer, or “dyno” for short, is a device used to measure force, moment of force (torque), or power. It’s incredibly useful for measuring the power of an engine, motor or other prime mover in order to determine its performance. In addition, dynamometers can also be used to measure the torque and power required to drive a machine like a pump. Let’s take a closer look at how you can use a dynamometer and why it is so important.
