Abstract
A torque moment is simulated in a rotary testing stand for test samples by providing a feed-back closed loop control circuit for controlling a torque moment generator. The feed-back control circuit generates a feed-back control signal by differentiating an angular velocity signal derived from a torque applying shaft and passing the differentiated signal through a proportional time element that has a controllable, variable time constant. Both the differentiating circuit and the time circuit are preferably controlled by a difference signal that represents a difference between the inertia moment of the test sample and the inertia moment of the testing stand. The output signal of the time circuit is compared in a comparator with an actual torque signal. The output of the comparator provides a rated or reference torque signal that is then used for adjusting the output of the torque generator to produce the required simulated torque load.
