What is Chain vs. Belt Drive Efficiency Analysis about?

The document discusses testing performed to compare the efficiency of chain and belt cam drives. An engine test stand was used to measure the torque required to turn the crankshaft with just the engine components and with the timing drive installed. The difference in torque is the loss associated with the timing drive. Testing found that chain drives had lower losses than belt drives. Strategies for reducing friction in timing drive systems are also discussed, such as optimizing layout geometry, tensioner t
