Greetings
I would like to set up a chassis dynamometer system for the customer of my company. We are going to use dynomax chassis dynamometer. I wanted to know how I can set the fuel flow meter for the system. Shall we use a fuel tank at a high stand with tubes and flow meter or there are better methods?
Can any one advise me? does anyone have the experience?
Dear Morteza
We built a custom airflow sensor for a digital dynamometer which may be interesting
for your project as it can also measure exhaust flow:

as for the Dynomax, you should look at the installation instructions

Normally the fuel tank is placed on a small stand but not to high above engine.

Hello - we had a good experience with Coriolis-type flow-through fuel meters for various gaseous and liquid fuels, and when nothing else works, you can put the tank on a scale and measure d(mass)/dt (paper on this attached).
