RRDGS systems are designed for harsh environments or remote locations requiring highly-mobile, high-specification products for military applications. The Project RRDSG required new test facility to enable validation testing of new spare parts for their (Napier) Deltic 9 diesel engines. RRDSGs original facility had fire and the majority of their spares parts were lost. So new parts were re-drawn and then tested for performance before fitting to the engines that are in service. Implementation The partnership of Taylor Dynamometer and Dynamometer Services Group (DSG) collaborated on the project. DSG built the test stand while Taylor provided the equipment for the test facility based around Taylors DX3 water brake (hydraulic) engine dynamometer.Business Challenge and SolutionBecause of the two-stroke design of the engine and the reliance of engine control without the presence of governor or limiter, the performance of the dynamometer and control system was paramount to ensure steady state load control with minimal overshoot. Also, the addition of Siemens Flender Speed-Increasing Gearbox was used to bring the shaft speed into the speed-range of the sensibly-sized DX3 engine dynamometer. Results Taylor Dynamo
