performing the test; otherwise, test results may be inaccurate.
1.4 Empty Swing
Energy Loss Page
On the main page, tap Empty Swing Energy Loss to enter the empty swing
energy loss page (or by tapping the left and right arrow icons on other pages), as
shown in the figure below:
Energy losses due to bearing friction and air resistance in half-cycle: Turn the
pointer to a position unreachable by pendulum impact, place the pendulum to the
initial position, release the pendulum without shock and vibration and let it swing
for 10 and a half cycles. Record the energy as E after the pendulum completes the
11th and a half cycle. Calculation formula for energy loss caused by bearing
friction and air resistance: p
ˊ =E/11.
During the test, tap the blank field in the page and set the empty swing impact
times to 6. The system will automatically calculate the employ swing energy
compensation value after the pendulum stops swinging.
