alternator_torq

Purpose:

Calculate engine net torque based on measured alternator power, measured engine speed and calculated alternator loss as a function of alternator measured power.  Alternator loss is calculated based on loss coefficients determined through a dynamometer testing process for production alternators.  Engine net torque, power and alternator loss will be output at the interval specified as a command line argument when the task is started.

Enter:

alternator_torq <priority> <process_interval> <spec_file>  &

Where:

priority

Specify the task priority.

process_interval

Specify the process interval, that is, the rate to process the computations.

spec_file

Specify the fully qualified specification file path and name.

Example:

alternator_torq 14 FAS /specs/alternator_specs.primary_key &
