Apparatus and method for monitoring operational performance of an engine, the apparatus comprising a sensor (10) for detecting torsional strain of a shaft (21) of an engine, and the apparatus further comprising a data processor arranged to process signals received from the strain sensor, and the data processor further arranged to compare one or more operational characteristics of the measured torsional strain data with idealised operational data so as to provide a measure of operational performance indicator of the engine. |
