University of Bath
awards honours to Cadet
When the Powertrain and Vehicle Research Unit at the University
of Bath re-equipped its engine test cells it conducted
an extensive market survey of test cell data acquisition
and control systems. "The CP Engineering Cadet system
came out ahead on flexibility, ease of customisation and
affordability," said Dr Chris Brace, PVRU, University
of Bath. "Equally important was our working relationship
with CP Engineering. Its extensive engineering capabilities,
expert product support and innovative approach to new
product design gave us confidence that our investment
would be of lasting value."
This has proved to be the case and several major items
of test cell hardware and software have been added. These
include two AC dynamometers, fuel consumption measurement
systems, environmental controls and a combustion analysis
suite that have helped the University to maintain its
capabilities at the forefront of the automotive industry.
"Our ability to perform complex and exacting experimental
work has increased greatly and contributes directly to
our international reputation for advanced powertrain research,"
added Dr Brace .
