Mechanical & Motion

Mechanical shaft power from torque and rotational speed.

App id: MECH-03. Reference version 1.0.

How to fill it

Fill the inputs. The tool shows the outputs.

On the tool screen, Calc is the working sheet. Presets stores values you reuse. Reference is the formula, assumptions, and provenance below.

Assumptions

  • Torque is shaft torque at the stated speed.

Provenance

  • P = τω on the same shaft.
