How power input versus displayed value is calculated
Total power, as displayed in Watts on the console, is calculated from the measured speed of the fan and the resistance provided by the
Eddy Current Brake. Variability of the fan power due to atmospheric conditions is compensated for by incorporating feedback from an
on-board barometric pressure and temperature sensors.
