if you dont know what bhp is, its brake horse power, it is worked out by multiplying the torque by the numberb of cylinders (i think)
ps. 1 horse has 0.7bhp, the bloke who worked this out assumed a horse has x2 strength as a pony which drew his carriage and this stuck, thhat is why there are many variations of horsepower/brakehorsepower now
BHP is horsepower. Horsepower is measured through how many horses it would take to be the equivelent to that car.
Brake Horse Power
cc is used to know about the engine size.....where as bhp tells you how much power is delivered at shaft ....it doesn't mean that larger engine size will produce more bhp than smaller one....both are different.....cc - cubic centimetres . to measure the engine displacement .bhp - brake horse power . to measure the power of a vehiclet's just a way to compare engines.The number of cc's the related to an engine, is the size of the engine. The actual size of the combustion chambers where the fuel is burned. Normally, the higher the cc's, the more fuel burned, therefore the more power.bhp is the actual horsepower put out by the engine as built, before attached to the car, which will be lower, as a nominal amount of horsepower is needed to turn the driveshaft and drive gears.t's just a way to compare engines.
PS is the abbreviation of horse strength in German and is no longer used as a standard of measurement. and bhp is brake horse power or crank shaft horse power. also 1 PS is not the same as 1 bhp since those crazy Germans decided that they wanted to be different
To signify.
BHP = Flow(GPM) X TDH(FT) x SG /3960xEFFICIENCY(%)Example: BHP = (100 GPM) x (95 Ft) x (1.0) / 3960 x .6BHP = 4.0
The flickering lights on boiler chimneys in power stations are aircraft warning lights. The spacing and blinking frequency are chosen to signify the height of the obstruction.
I have personally seen a 4 bhp car
93.5 bhp
The BhP of the car is 64
whats bhp ford ka BF53LGG
Brake Horse Power
The 160 bhp engine has quite a bit more power, and is probably less economical.
1115bhp by the koenigsegg Agera R
A 2008 version of the Formula One car produces about 750 bhp (approx. 90 bhp per cylinder). The 2004 version (3 lit., V-10 engines) used to produce horsepower in excess of 920 bhp and towards the end of the season, it was reported that some teams, most notably, the Williams-BMW could produce about 980-1000 bhp!!
1183 bhp
Bugatti Veyron. 252 MPH 1001 BHP
Rally cars are limited to only 2.0 litre engines, yet they are fitted with gigantic turbochargers that can give them up to 300 bhp
Ford Escort Diesel 1.2 litre 50 bhp
