Abstract :
The mechanical load emulator is a device that is used to emulate a rotating mechanical load for electric motors. It consists of a DC generator that is connected to a programmable electronic load. The emulator can simulate three types of loads: constant-torque loads (T=K 1), traction loads (T=K2omegam), and pump loads (T=K3omegam 2). The mechanical load emulator may be used for motor testing or instructional purposes
