ANSWER
Horsepower (hp) is a measurement unit that measures power in foot pounds per time (ft-lbs/t).
Kilowatts (kW - 1000 watts) is a measurement unit that measures the work done when a force of one newton moves the point of its application a distance of one metre in the direction of the force.
kW is the capacity to do work (like a standing horse)
kWh is a measure of power - the amount of work done in one hour *(horsepower)
*Horsepower is the rate at which a horse can do work in a given amount of time (distance x force/time):
550 ft-lbs./sec or 33,000 ft-lbs/minute or 1,980,000 ft-lbs/hour.
1 kW = 1.34 hp and 1 kW = 2,655,223 ft-lb/hour
1.34 x 2,655,223 = (approx.) 1,980,000 ft-lbs/hour or 1 hp
-- watt -- kilowatt -- joule per second -- horsepower
12 kilowatts is an amount of power that is the voltage times the current in amps. So 12 kilowatts could be provided by 100 volts at 120 amps, or 1000 volts at 12 amps. Equipment is designed to work at a standard voltage, then the current taken is enough for the amount of power it uses.
Watts is smaller than kilowatts. watts is unit of power and kilowatts hour is unit of energy. Electrical devices are specified in watts where as electrical bill is for kilowatt hr use.
200 kilowatts is a small amount compared to the reactor's design output, but this would produce about 70 kilowatts of electric power
Horsepower - power over time, continuously used. You can only generate what you need or use.Torque- Power on hand, waiting for demand. Like a weight hanging on stick. It is there when you need it.Torque gets you going and Horsepower keeps you rolling.AnswerYou really should be asking, "What is the difference between torque and power?"Horsepower is simply the Imperial unit of measurement for power, usually used to describe the output (rather than input) power of a machine. These days, most countries use watts, which is the SI unit for power. Power is defined as the rate of doing work. In Europe and elsewhere outside North America, the output power of a car engine is measured in kilowatts, rather than in horsepower.Torque is the product of the radius of rotation and the force acting at right angles to that radius. So, torque is normally expressed in newton metres.The work done by torque can be determined by multiplying the force acting at right angles to the radius, by the circumference through which that force acts. If we know the time taken to complete the circumference, then it is possible to determine the power.
6 horsepower = 4.47 kilowatts
5 horsepower = 3.73 kilowatts
1 horsepower = 0.745699872 kilowatts you would convert it when you want a metric measurement for horsepower an example 400 horsepower(mechanical) = 298.2799 kilowatt
There are 74.57 kilowatts in 100 Horsepower.
120 kilowatts = 160.9 horsepower.
Multiply the horsepower by a factor of 0.746 (approximate) to obtain the equivalent power in kilowatts.
48,000 kW is about 64,369 horsepower.
Do you mean kW - kilowatts? Because that's the common measure of conversion used. 750 kilowatts would equal 1005.7677 horsepower.
10 kilowatts is 13.6 metric horsepower.
190.23 kW
Both are units of time rate of change of energy, or 'power', so they're appropriate candidatesfor unit conversion.1 horsepower = 550 foot-pounds per second = 746 joules per second = 746 watts = 0.746 kilowatts1 kilowatt = 1,000/746 = 1.3405 horsepower(rounded)
92 kilowatts = 123.4 horsepower.
