Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /ACL1/LG11;3.24 OBJECT OF TEST. Data of Hispano servo. TESTER. A. {Mr Adams} C. Lovesey. CONDITIONS. Tests made with engine on test bench. SUMMARY OF TEST. Ratio of Torque Output to Torque Input. Experiments made over a range of loads equivalent to pedal pressures from 15 lbs. to 100 lbs. and an equivalent car speed of approx. 30 M.P.H. Torque output - In these results - Torque output = Torque given by servo + torque input. RESULTS :- | Ratio Torque output / Torque input | Value of μ from results. | |---|---| | Max. value reached. | 10 | .57 | | Min. value reached. | 3 | .28 | | Average value. | 4 | .36 | contd:- | ||
