ABSTRACT:
A vehicle dynamometer system having at least one roller mounted in a frame for engagement with at least one driven wheel of a vehicle includes an eddy current brake for, when actuated, applying a controllable amount of force to the dynamometer roller. A display displays a graph of desired velocity values versus time graph. Vehicle speed is monitored. A controller comparatively displays on the display the monitored vehicle speed against the desired velocity value and controls the eddy current brake to simulate inertia loads in accordance with the displayed desired velocity values.
