Abstract
A water brake dynamometer includes a water brake having a stator housing with a rotor disc mounted on a through shaft. Water is pumped into the interior of the housing as the shaft and rotor are driven by an external engine. Momentum interaction transfers force between the rotor and stator housing. The planar surfaces of the opposing surfaces of the rotor housing are substantially identical as are those of the stator. A measuring device has been provided to measure the torque transferred from the rotor to the stator housing.
