Appendix C

Water Flow Formula

Dynamometer Water Requirements

The intent of this Appendix is to provide the formulas used to determine the correct water
flow for accurate performance of a dynamometer. These formulas were used to calculate the
values for water flow listed in Table 1 - Physical Specifications. It is assumed the installer and
operator have a certain level of knowledge and experience. Contact Taylor Dynamometer
Service with questions.

English units:

GPM = 5.09* (HP rating) / (140-Tin)

Where:
HP rating is the dyno HP rating
Tin is the water supply temperature in degrees Fahrenheit
GPM is the required water flow in gallons per minute.

A Taylor water recirculation system will supply water (Tin) at 90°F so that this
equation simplifies to GPM=0.102*HP rating.

Municipal water sources typically supply water at 70°F. In this case the relationship
becomes GPM=0.727*(HP rating) if fresh 70°F municipal water is used for the
dynamometer supply. If the water is not supplied by a Taylor Water Recirculation
System, make sure that you know the water temperature the system can maintain so
that it can be properly sized.

The dynamometer’s capability may be limited if the water supply exceeds 90°F.

Metric Units
LPM =14.35* (KW rating) / (60-Tin)
where
KW rating is the dynamometer rating in kilowatts
Tin is the water supply temperature in degrees Celsius
LPM is the required water flow in liters per minute.

For a Taylor Water Recirculation System in Tin is 32°C, and the required water flow
relationship becomes LPM = 0.5125* (KW rating).

Municipal water sources typically supply water at 21°C. In this case the relationship
becomes LPM=03.69*(KW rating) if fresh 21°C municipal water is used for the
dynamometer supply. If the water is not supplied by a Taylor Water Recirculation
System, make sure that you know the water temperature the system can maintain so
that it can be properly sized.

The dynamometer’s capability may be limited if the water supply exceeds 32°C.
