HP to RPM Calculator

HP to RPM Calculator

The relationship between Horsepower (HP), Torque, and RPM can be rearranged to calculate RPM using the following formulas:

\( RPM = \frac{\text{HP} \times 63025}{\text{Torque (lb.in)}} \)

\( RPM = \frac{\text{HP} \times 5252}{\text{Torque (lb.ft)}} \)

\( RPM = \frac{\text{HP} \times 712.4}{\text{Torque (Nm)}} \)

Parameters:

- \( \text{HP} \): Horsepower.
- \( \text{Torque} \): Rotational force (in lb.in, lb.ft, or Nm).
- \( RPM \): Revolutions per Minute (to be calculated).

Example Calculation

If the horsepower is 50 HP and the torque is 100 lb.ft:
\( RPM = \frac{50 \times 5252}{100} = 2626 \, \text{RPM} \)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of this calculator?

This calculator helps determine the RPM of a rotating system based on horsepower (HP) and torque, useful in automotive and mechanical engineering applications.

Can I use different units for torque?

Yes, the calculator supports torque in lb.in, lb.ft, and Nm, using the appropriate formula for each unit.
