as the title states I am looking to solve how to calculate power (horsepower) by measuring the change in rpm over a few seconds. torque will be kept constant at 200lbs/ft.
hp= (torque x rpm) / 5252
since torque will be held constant it reduces to:
hp= C x rpm where C is 200/5252
so let's say i measure the change in rpm over 1 second, how do i use this to calculate horsepower?
..i used to be good at solving problems like this, and i feel crappy that I've lost that ability
if you could shed some light as to how i can set this question up and how to go about finding its solution tht would be great!
thanks
