| Summary: | The article presents methodology for testing the traction parameters of the vehicle on the laboratory stand. The tests have been carried out using MAHA LPS 3000 chassis dynamometer. Power output can be measured in two ways, at steady state or during acceleration. Both have benefits as well as drawbacks. Car manufacturers are required to use steady state tests for certification of power output. It has an advantage as it is a well defined test that is easy to repeat and verify. The problem with results measured during acceleration is that the acceleration itself has a considerable effect on the result. |
