NVH Brake Testing on a Chassis Dynamometer

Aside from fuel economy and drive quality, sound quality (which consists of noise and vibration) is also an important aspect of vehicle marketing. Sound quality has impact on customers’ perception of the vehicle’s comfort and safety. The study and modification of noise and vibration characteristics of vehicles is called NVH (Noise, vibration, and harshness) also known as N&V (noise and vibration). In automobiles, brake noise is one of the most important issues because it may signify a faulty safety part.

Hybrid Vehicle Power Electronics Carrier (PEC) Charger System

Hybrid systems are designed to provide fuel savings during acceleration and braking.  Upon initial acceleration, the electric motor uses the power stored in the battery to assist the move of the vehicle.  When the vehicle comes to a stop, the electric motor helps slow the vehicle and simultaneously charges the battery.  This process reduces wear on the brakes.

February 9, 2009 - Revolutionary Engineering, Inc. Awarded Dynamometer System Build in China

Revolutionary Engineering has been awarded their first job for delivery to China. The 1.03 Million USD contract will consist of three (3) complete dynamometer test systems used to measure non-firing engine characteristics. These systems will simulate a wide range of engine operating parameters including engine oil and coolant temperature (to 140C). In addition, each test cell will have the ability to simulate individual cylinder combustion torque pulsations up to the maximum (dynamometer) rotational speed of 10,000 RPM.

The first system is designed to measure internal combustion engine component friction characteristics. The...
