    @MR-rk4xj 3 роки тому +39

    The difference between torque and horsepower...... is time. Torque is an element in calculating horsepower, so there really is no "HP vs Torque". Torque is raw force. When raw force meets time, it produces work. HP= torque x RPM / 5252. HP is torque flowing through time causing rotation. Can't separate torque from HP.
    When it comes to real world application concerning cars and motorcycles, the real issue is usually power band and gear ratio. Trying to understand HP vs Torque is impossible, except within a persons mind(thinking outside of time). In the outside world, we live in time. Time is the real difference.

    • @epi2045
      @epi2045 3 роки тому +2

      Yep... torque is only an element of HP. While torque is important, in the end it’s about HP.

    • @ninemilliondollars
      @ninemilliondollars 3 роки тому +2

      HP is work performed over a given time period. Truck diesel engines develop a lot of torque at low RPM which results in a lot of HP to get a heavy load moved. Yet, on steep inclines, they cannot maintain the speed of a car because they don't develop enough HP since the top RPM of the engine is limited. Cars can't pull a heavy load because they don't develop enough torque at low RPM which equates to HP. But they can travel up a steep incline because they develop a lot of HP at high RPM. Just supplying a comment.

    I always thought of it as Torque is how hard the engine can push the piston down, and horsepower is how fast it can do it.

    • @ninemilliondollars
      @ninemilliondollars 3 роки тому

      I agree. Diesels can't spin fast but push very hard. Cars and motorcycles spin very fast, but can't push hard. Your choice is dependent up the application you want to satisy.

    Another very simplified version, is to realize torque is a force, horsepower is not. It is torque that sets the sizes, strengths, and mounting of all drive train components, gearing, shafting, tire size, etc. It is torque (force) moves (accelerates) the car from Newtons first law F=ma. Unfortunately, one must pay to play, and the cost of employing torque (force) is providing sufficient power to maintain the torque over time and distance. That is the horsepower. The more horsepower, the more torque can be sustained. The power comes from burning fuel ($$). More horsepower, faster fuel consumption. Torque is what we want, horsepower the price we pay. Keep up the good work Scotty!
