Horsepower And Toeque Math

[ToolManTimTaylor]

Am I correct with this equasion to get torque readings?



H. P X 5252 Divided by RPM = Torque



235 X 5252 divided by 2700 = 457. 11851 foot pounds of torqe.



I was using this being my local dyno does not have torque readings, and using D/C's advertized horsepower readings in the brochure the torque answer seems correct no?





:Edit: Mark here ya go

Toolman,
Your math is correct. In order to calculate horsepower from torque, just reverse the equation:

HP= Torque X RPM divided by 5252.

Sometimes its fun to look at advertising numbers and do the math to see if they are legitimate numbers or made up.

I am eager to use it and was wondering if The math was correct. Definatly a useful tool #ad
How about math on a estimated Elapsed 1/4 time?

Of course advertisers often show you horsepower and torque figures at different RPMs... . Hey, I'm in marketing - don't trust the ads!! The people who write those are slippery little suckers! #ad

I Dunno is there a calculated 1/4 mile equasion? There ... . I say there just has to be. #ad

hp = weight / (ET / 5. 825)^3
