dyno INSITES
Whether you are an engineer responsible for designing an engine test cell, an operator, an engineering student, or simply a person interested in engine testing, the Dyno Insites podcast is your source for real-world, practical engine dynamometer conversation. We don't engage in lengthy banter. We get right to the point with a focus on educating our audience.
Gathering information about dynamometer test systems can involve scouring through numerous technical websites and often the information lacks the practical application aspect one seeks to fully understand engine test systems.
Join hosts and Froude engineers, Mike Golda and Chris Middlemass as they share a combined 60 years of engine test cell experience during this informative, 10 - 30 minute, monthly podcast. By the way, we don't have a fancy sound studio, we're recording in the back electronics lab in our Novi, MI location. We do our best to edit out obvious distracting noises, but we are all here and working, so the podcast may catch a bit of background noise-- perhaps a door closing or other sounds of a busy facility!
If there's a topic you'd like us to cover, or if you would like to be a guest on dyno insites, please email podcast@froudedyno.com.

Test Cell Design & Construction: Electrical
Welcome to another episode of dyno INSITES. In today's podcast, we're delving into the critical aspects of high and low voltage electrical considerations in test cell design.
The hosts delve into power absorption for different components within a test cell and the importance of future-proofing the electrical system during the design phase.
Mike and Chris share some of their own professional experiences — you will hear about electromagnetic interference caused by a welding station located near a test cell which affected control signals.
Disclaimer: This podcast episode provides valuable insights into the electrical aspects of test cells but does not constitute professional engineering or safety advice. Always consult with experts and follow local safety regulations when designing test cells.
Thank you for listening! If there's an engine testing topic you'd like us to cover in future episodes, or you'd like to be a guest on dyno INSITES, please email podcast@froudedyno.com.
