Engine Testing: Theory and Practice

The current concern with environmental matters has given a fresh impetus to the development of the internal combustion engine. Test procedures are becoming ever more complex and demanding. This presents a challenge to test and development engineers, since they must have these new techniques at their fingertips, as well as all the traditional skills associated with engine testing. The purpose of this book is to bring together in one volume all the information on the theory and practice of engine testing and test plant design necessary for any engineer responsible for work of this kind. It should be of interest to mechanical, automotive and marine engineers, control and production engineers, and instrumentation engineers.
