Default APT RR Day ***Graphs***

Sorry for the delay in posting these. It takes a while to set them out as Jpeg's and we have been really busy this week.

They are in the order that they ran. The first graph for each is Estimated Flywheel Power vs Flywheel Torque. The second is Wheel Power vs Boost.

The plot with dots on it signifies that it uses the right-hand axis.

I hope this all makes sense and that everyone concerned is happy with them being posted. I will try and edit with Usernames when I get a chance, as it is I am trying to get this done before I go home!!

It has just been pointed out that I have made a small error with a couple of the graphs and since I am now at home, I can't alter it!!

Warren and Nutter's graphs show the Peak Flywheel figure in the top corner for the Power@Wheels plots. The graph itself is correct, it is just the figure at the top that isn't.

Yes, it's the new Windows based software. We are the first in the country to have it as far as I know. I will take some further pics of our Dyno set-up once we tie up a few of the loose ends.

It is because Gary has now passed 30 years of age and his reactions have subsequently slowed. Once the run has ended, which is either at the rev limiter or when the operator feels the car has stopped making power, a button is pressed to complete the graphing. However, Gary often doesn't react fast enough and carries on recording after the run has ended!!

I think the main surprise for me was AndyKam's car. I really knew nothing about it and the results were awesome.

Tony's car was only running 1.6 bar on the day, as you will see from his graphs. Unfortunately we didn't have time to discover why it was running lower boost, but with the 2.0 bar it was mapped with, it would have cleared 300bhp with ease.
