Application Description
Performance Calculator for Land Vehicles
MotorSim 2 is a specialized performance calculator designed for land vehicles (note: this is not a driving game, but rather a physics-based simulator focusing on straight-line acceleration dynamics).
Key Features
The application lets users configure technical specifications and computes resulting vehicle performance metrics. It features an interactive simulator complete with:
- Real-time speedometer display
- Precise RPM meter
- Throttle and brake controls
- Gearshift selector (manual or automatic transmission options)
- Procedurally generated engine sounds (algorithmic, not sampled)
- Quarter-mile track visualization showing vehicle position
Users can save test settings as "ghost" profiles to compare different configuration performances.
Configurable Parameters
- Peak power output
- Customizable power curve (user-defined point-by-point)
- Torque curve (automatically calculated from power curve)
- Maximum engine RPM (including rev limiter setting)
- Gearbox configuration (supports up to 10 gears)
- Aerodynamic resistance (drag coefficient Cx, frontal area)
- Rolling resistance coefficients
- Total vehicle weight
- Wheel/tire dimensions
- Gear shift duration
- Drivetrain efficiency
Calculated Performance Metrics
- Theoretical top speed
- Acceleration times (0-60, 0-100, 0-200 km/h etc.)
- Quarter-mile times
- All measurable parameters via the simulation interface
