Ricardo Wave .out file question

Hi,

I have to ask something...
In the output file of Wave, what is the "INDIC. POWER"?
What's the difference from Brake Power?

I never worked with Wave, but it's likley to be the indicated power of the engine. The indicated power is brake power plus frictional power of the engine. I.P. can be calculated using the p-V-diagram.

Chris,

As an FSAE WAVE user you do have access to (limited) free support from Ricardo. Why not make use of it?

Or why not make use of the WAVE Basic manual?
