<p>a device for indicating the operating performance of Locomotive is provided which indirectly measures the power generated by the traction alternator(2). A locomotive notch interface unit (8) is provided to sense the notch position / number and correlating it with the power generated with respect to the time it operates at each notch /number; and integrating it over a given locomotive run to provide resultant power generated index; a fuel level sensor to monitor the fuel consumption at each notch and/or by all the notches together in generating the said power for a given locomotive run; thereafter dividing the power generated index with respect to fuel consumption to measure the operating performance of the locomotive and if this index falls outside the optimum performance index the driver is alarmed to get the locomotive overhauled to save fuel.</p> |
