A SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING SHAFT LOAD PARAMETERS INCLUDING SHAFT WINDUP ANGLE PER UNIT LENGTH, TORQUE OUTPUT AND POWER OUTPUT IN A GENERALLY CYLINDRICAL ROTATING SHAFT Abstract of the Invention A system for determining shaft load parameters including shaft windup angle per unit length, torque output and power output in a generally cylindrical rotating shaft having an outer surface and a longitudinal axis extending through the center thereof includes a plurality of probes spaced apart from each other. Each probe has a first end and a second end, the first end of each probe being in facing relationship with the rotating shaft. A rigid frame commonly supports all of the probes at a predetermined distance from the outer surface of the shaft. The frame is supported in such a manner that the frame may vibrate or displace relative to the rotating shaft essentially as a rigid body. Targets on the outer surface of the rotating shaft are located for triggering a probe output response each time during shaft rotation that a target passes the first end of one of the probes. A calculator calculates the torque induced shaft windup angle of the rotating shaft based in part on the probe trigger times and the spacing of the probes.
