The formula to convert torque (T) and RPM (N) to power (P) in kilowatts (kW) is:
\[ P (\text{kW}) = \frac{T (\text{Nm}) \cdot N (\text{RPM})}{9549.296585513720} \]
Where:
Torque is a measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis. It is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction. Torque is typically measured in Newton-meters (Nm) in the metric system. It is an important parameter in engineering and physics as it describes the effectiveness of a force to produce rotational motion.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula to calculate the power:
\[ P (\text{kW}) = \frac{50 \cdot 3000}{9549.296585513720} \approx 15.71 \text{ kW} \]
The Power (P) is approximately 15.71 kW.
