Power Calculation
Posted: Mon Aug 12, 2019 11:31 am
Hi,
I am having some issues with the power calculation in the analysis software. My car is Dyno tested as 126hp (96kW) at the wheels, and I have inputted this into the simulation as a power curve, but the software is showing figures up to 165kW in run data.
Anyone got any ideas why this might be? When I run a sim lap it comes back with a time that is several seconds quicker than the series champion can achieve, and I suspect the power values may be something to do with it.
