Abstract

Considering the exhaustive torque measurement possibilities, the method including a torque transducer calibrated from the manufacturing site, with a given accuracy which refers to a documented unbroken chain of comparisons relating this torque transducer to the primary standard, ensures its traceability. Precision measurements are essential to determine the efficiency and therefore meet the strict environmental regulations for marine engines.
