Currently there is no method except the mark 1 eyeball to record averages over time at slow speeds.


Perhaps it may be possible to set up a data collection that records speed, control settings, steam consumption, fuel feed rate and tender coal amount every minute for the duration of a test run. Possibly the current steam data log would do the job if the recording step was changed from 5mph steps to 1 minute time steps.
