Development of a data acquisition system for measuring the characteristics of real time forces by cage wheels

摘要

A new data acquisition system was introduced that could be used to monitor the real time wheel forces to solve the limitations of obtaining precise performance characteristics of actual cage wheels. Contrary to previous methods, in which the cage wheel forces were obtained by summing up the individual lug forces. The new method enables measurement of the compo- nents of lug force in three orthogonal directions simultaneously.
