    - Dynamometers are used to measure power absorbed during braking.

    - They are also used to measure frictional resistance. Torque transmitted can be determined by knowing the frictional resistance and hence the power of the engine is calculated.

    - The different types of dynamometers are:

    1) Prony brake dynamometer
    2) Rope brake dynamometer
    3) Belt transmission dynamometer
    4) Epicyclic dynamometer
    5) Torsion dynamometer
