Dyno2000 Advanced Engine Simulation—9
Introduction To The Dyno2000
100 dyno-run Iterative test on various PC systems (this is a very short run; Iterative
tests can consist of hundreds of thousands of simulated dyno runs or more):
Computer Coprocessor Calc. Time For 100-Test Run
Pentium 400Mhz Built-In 17 Seconds
Pentium 200Mhz Built-In 75 Seconds
Pentium 133Mhz Built-In 112 Seconds
Pentium 60Mhz Built-In 4.3 Minutes
80486DX 33Mhz Built-In 13.5 Minutes
80386DX 25Mhz Yes (added) 49 Minutes
80486SX 25Mhz No 6.4 Hours
80386DX 33Mhz No 9.4 Hours
80286 at 10Mhz No 24 Hours

Mouse: A mouse (trackball, or other pointer control) is required to use the Dyno2000.
While most component selections can be performed with the keyboard, several
operations within the Dyno2000 require the use of a mouse.
Printer: The Dyno2000 can print a comprehensive “dyno-test report” of a simulated
dyno run with any Windows-compatible printer. If you use a color printer, the data
curves and selected information will print in color (see page 81 for more information
about Dyno2000 printing).
