darrenjlobb's Rolling Road Chassis Dyno Project

[toseland]

Is it not a coincidence that just as ruan gets his finger out with his 306...darren is putting together a dyno!?

To be fair, just a coincidence lol....Have been working on this for ages now, Only read Ruan was manning up and sorting his DT (not that I can talk) yesterday!!

How are you regulating the level in the thing (water that is)? out of interest

Basically there is "load" feeds and "unload" drains from the brake, controlled with solenoids...I MAY change the design in the future to a constant drain with variable intake, and sack off the heat exchangers if i find the reaction to be to annoying, but ive modified quite alot of it to try and speed it up...I explain in the videos im just editing how it works a bit...

I think that would be difficult... constant flow out, with modulated in, means there is the possibility of overfilling easily, the other option to that is to have an oversized drain and then you run the risk of not being able to fill it up


i would stick with being able to control the in and out.. close the out to fill it up, close the in to regulate the level, close the in more to regulate the out...
