AVL ROADSIM NVH 4x4 LIGHT TRUCK™ Chassis Dynamometer - Development

AVL ROADSIM NVH 4x4 LIGHT TRUCK™ Chassis Dynamometer
AVL Approach
The cradle mounted AC motors are arranged beside the roller sets. Acoustic treatments like hydraulic bearing, enclosures, etc. reduce the acoustic emissions. The road load simulation uses the mechanical base inertia together with electrical inertia simulation.
Benefits at a Glance
- Extreme low noise characteristic (hydraulic bearings, acoustic insulation, etc.)
- Proven record of numerous installations worldwide
- Excellent working relationship with all major chamber suppliers
- Local service capability with short response time

Measuring Principle
Tractive force
The tractive force is measured by a strain gauge sensor supporting the cradle mounted motor.
Speed
The speed is measured by an incremental encoder with two 90° shifted tracks with detection of the direction of rotation.
