Full Description

Industrial testing of turbine and internal combustion engines is performed in enclosed test spaces to control noise and isolate the test for safety or security. These spaces are ventilated or conditioned to control the facility environment and fumes. Isolated engines are tested in test cells; engines inside automobiles are tested on chassis dynamometers. The ventilation and safety principles for test cells also apply when large open areas in the plant are used for production testing and emissions measurements.
