Torque from Horsepower Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the torque from horsepower is:

\[ \text{T} = \frac{\text{HP}}{\left(\frac{\text{RPM}}{5252}\right)} \]

Where:

T is the torque (pound-feet)
HP is the horsepower
RPM is the rotations per minute

What is HP to Torque?

Calculating torque from horsepower involves dividing the horsepower by the RPM generated by the engine. This calculation helps determine the rotational force produced by the engine.

Example Calculation

Example:

Horsepower: 300 HP
RPM: 4000

Step 1: Calculate the torque:

\[ \text{T} = \frac{300}{\left(\frac{4000}{5252}\right)} \approx 393.9 \text{ pound-feet} \]
