This dynamometer canbe placed between the line shaft and any tool or machine with the great-est ease. The belt is taken off and hung up, and a short piece ofexperimental belting run from the driving pulley to the upper pulleyof the dynamometer. The lower pulley is then connected to thedriven machine by another belt, and the direction of rotation, as wellas the speed, is preserved. Fast and loose pulleys enable the wholeoperation to be completed in a very short time. The horse powerbeing determined, the size of the motor is fixed, and it remains onlyto show by what mean
