Ideally, the calculation of driveline component imbalance sensitivity is a straightforward operation of normalizing the changes in dynamic responses that occur when a known imbalance is added to a rotating component. In practice, however, overlapping driveline component orders (and wheel order harmonics) often prohibit the measurement repeatability required to distinguish these changes. A solution to the measurement repeatability issue is presented for chassis dynamometer testing, based on prescribing minor adjustments to the roll speeds for different wheels in order to separate the orders of various rotating components.
