Sure, but that sort of uncertainty should only increase the range of values you see out of the simulation. You could say “efficiency may range from 60% to 80%, so the output torque will range from X to Y”. If the real result is bigger than Y, something has gone wrong in your modeling or assumptions

Maybe they used a "all our previous tests showed 95% of efficiency compared to simulation, so let's multiply all our results, including top efficiency by this". Then their newest motor had 97% efficiency comparing to previous model.
