RPM To Horsepower (HP) Calculator

Horsepower (HP) Calculator

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

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

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

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

Parameters:

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

Example Calculation

If the torque is 100 lb.ft and the RPM is 3000:
\( HP = \frac{100 \times 3000}{5252} \approx 57.12 \, \text{HP} \)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of this calculator?

This calculator helps determine the horsepower (HP) of a rotating system based on torque and RPM, 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.
