Convert between power, torque, and RPM for motors and engines - enter any 2 values
Relationship:
Power = Torque × RPM × Constant
Enter any 2 values to calculate the third automatically.
Calculate the relationship between power, torque, and rotational speed (RPM) for motors, engines, and mechanical systems. Enter any two values to automatically calculate the third.
Power (kW) Formula:
P = (T × ω) / 1000
P = (T × RPM × 2π) / 60000
Torque (Nm) Formula:
T = (P × 60000) / (RPM × 2π)
T = (P × 9549) / RPM
RPM Formula:
RPM = (P × 9549) / T
Where: P = Power (kW), T = Torque (Nm), ω = Angular velocity (rad/s)
Power is the rate at which work is done - how fast energy is transferred.
Torque is the rotational force - the "twisting" strength of the motor.
RPM is the speed of rotation - how fast the shaft spins.
Key Insight: High torque at low RPM = strong but slow (like a truck). Low torque at high RPM = weak but fast (like a sports car).
