You need to measure the torque of the engine. This is best done at the rear wheels using a rolling road dynamometer. You will get a readout giving the torque throughout the rev range. To convert torque into bhp do the following calcluation: bhp = (rpm x torque)/5252
As the torque applied to the rotating arm increases, the force applied to the rolling mass also increases. This is because torque is directly related to force in rotational systems, according to the equation torque = force x distance. So, increasing the torque will result in a higher force applied to the rolling mass on the rotating arm.
Torque is not measured as a percentage.
One difference between dynamic torque and static torque is the level of difficulty to measure. Static torque is each to measure, while dynamic torque is not. This is because it requires a transfer of an electric or magnetic effect.
Simply put 'torque' is a measure of rotational force.
Torque has nothing to do with horsepower. It is purely a measure of force, whereas horsepower is a measure of how much work can be done over time.
Measure the rpm & calculate the torque as power divided by angular velocity
A dynamometer is used to measure force, torque or power of a engine. A dynamometer also can measure the torque and power needed to power a given driven machine.
To measure torque by hand, you can use a torque wrench, which is a tool that allows you to apply a specific amount of force to a bolt or nut. The torque wrench will indicate the amount of torque being applied, usually in units like foot-pounds or Newton-meters. Simply adjust the torque wrench to the desired torque setting, then apply force to the bolt or nut until the wrench clicks or signals that the correct torque has been reached.
Torque sensors are used in vehicles and aircraft. They are used on engines, gearboxes, crankshafts and transmissions to measure the amount of torque being generated.
The turning effect of a force is called torque. Torque is the measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate around an axis.
A dynamometer measures force, torque, and power. It can be used to measure the power of an engine.
