Re: DIY Dyno
You need to dump around 400kW to 800kW (500HP to 1kHP) some where as heat. That's a significant amount of heat to deal with. ------- Thats why i chose eddy brake ... you need to put little power to brake alot and it does not heat up ( on our aplication ). what about connecting it to the power grid? ...
Re: DIY Dyno
i know about water brake ( same problem ... heat .. you need water source for good operation ) , on 300kw oil pump the oil wil be too hot in max 5 min ( ~ 50 l ). For low load you can use : steering pump ( about 15 hp ) , alternator ( use rezistor on AC side in delta ) and you can controll the load ...

Re: DIY Dyno
Nice software . i have made a few years ago , a little eddy brake before i buy the big one . I dont think is a good ideea with tork convertor but you can use a oil pump from a hidraulic sistem . ( work well but you need a lot of oil for heat excange )
Re: DIY Dyno
kb1gtt yes , i dont have a datasheet but some general info http://telmausa.com/TELMATECHWEB/DOC/PDF/TL101009.pdf , the load cell i have are from digital scale for market ( aluminium 250 kg ~ 2500 n ) one is new one is .... but good . I can not use brakes for absorbing the power .. after ~ 30 sec of ...

the arduino code : serial comands : 1 - light a led ( test) 2 - light a led ( test) 3 - sends temp , kpa , rh ( weader station ) ? - mcp adc ? adc1 , adc2 ... , adc8 , rpm , roller rpm , need to do : implement rpm and drum rpm ( on int0 and int1 ) , and pid for load control ( rpm or speed setpoint )
Re: DIY Dyno
The retarder take 24v at ~ 100 amp (2.4kw ) and can brake 1000 nm ( ~ 1000 hp ~ 760 kw ) can be easly rewire for 192v and use rezistor + triac (?!) for 220v but i have the power supplay alreddy ( it is a big an bulky psu ~ 40 kg ) so ... i use like it is . I use labview becouse is the single thing i...

Home made rolls (4x 900 mm - 218mm diameter ) for 2wd , EDDY brake from volvo truck , 24v 100 amp big russian battery charger ( from a ship ) ) , igbt module . I will make some photos on the rolls , brake , bearings . ( i need just 2 big steel profiles .... and.... work )
Re: DIY Dyno
The schematic and pcb are in eagle ... and software is labview ( i am noob at code .... and it is just for test the hardware . far from working software).
