Thrust to Horsepower Calculator

Calculate Horsepower from Thrust



Formula

To calculate the Horsepower (HP) from Thrust:

\[ HP = \frac{T \times V}{375} \]

Where:

What is Thrust to Horsepower?

Converting thrust to horsepower involves multiplying the total pound-force of thrust by the velocity of the object and then dividing by 375. This conversion is often used in aerodynamics and other fields where both thrust and horsepower are relevant measurements of power.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ HP = \frac{500 \times 200}{375} = 266.67 \text{ HP} \]

The Horsepower is 266.67 HP.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ HP = \frac{1000 \times 150}{375} = 400 \text{ HP} \]

The Horsepower is 400 HP.
