Motor production: Speed, Torque and Horsepower

The three factors that determine the type of work a motor can produce are speed, torque, and horsepower. Speed is defined as how fast the motor performs its work. For example, a shaft can rotate slowly or quickly. The typical units of measurement for rotational motor speed are Revolutions Per Minute, or rpm.

Hello I need to carry 25 kg by a robot, which characteristic( power, torque, speed) the motor should have to carry this weight, we are using DC motor.

[@fluurp]

In physics and mechanics, torque is the rotational equivalent of linear force. It is also referred to as the moment, moment of force, rotational force or turning effect, depending on the field of study. The concept originated with the studies by Archimedes of the usage of levers. Wikipedia

Why is this like over and over again for like 10 times and watts per second is the same as joules per second

[@smaari]

There is a mix-up between Power and Energy in this video. Power is defined as the Energy generated or spent over a period of time. Assume you generated 500 Joules over 5 seconds then the average Power generation over these 5 seconds is 500/5=100 Watts. In IS units, the Power unit is Watt=Joule/Sec. In Imperial Units, the Power unit is BTU/hr. Here are few ENERGY conversions (Think of energy as: Joules, BTU, and Kwh i.e. Kilowatt-hour): 1 Joule=0.000947817 BTU=2.7778e-7 Kwh 1 BTU= 1055.06 Joule=0.000293071 Kwh 1 Kwh= =3.6e+6 Joule = 3412.14 BTU ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here are few POWER conversions (think of Power as: Watts, Mechanical Horsepower hp(i), 1 Watt=3.412141 BTU/Hr=0.0013410 hp(i) 1 BTU/Hr= 0.2931 Watt=0.000393 hp(i) 1 hp(i)= 745.67 Watt = 2544.433 BTU/hr

[@mostafaabdelmageed4852]

what he said is correct >> if you want to maintain any factor of the three factors constant, the other tow shall behave due to the equation .. this what did he mean

[@arunfernandez1999]

1:38 1 HP = 745.7 Joules per second and 745.7 Watts per second

[@SuperAnders9000]

Hp and joules are not compatible. joules = [length]^2 [mass])/[time]^2 | = energy hp = (horsepower) | ([length]^2 [mass])/[time]^3 |= power BTU_IT (IT British thermal units)= | ([length]^2 [mass])/[time]^2 = energy

[@davidemil55]

Thank you I was thinking the same thing!

[@jorgegodinez2781]

SuperAnders9000 you are ok, joule is the unit in international sistem for energy, otherwise hp is a unit in usa sistem for power (energy by time)

[@edlingja1]

Jorge Godinez Guys... It can all be calculated, it's just deciding between which word to apply to any given situation. Hp is great for mechanical work like cars or cranes but has 0 impact on deciding chemical needs. Joules of energy (i.e. potential energy) is much different than live horsepower.

[@navidzadeh9713]

Exactly!

[@nicholaslau3194]

Jay Edlington Hp and joule are fundamentally different things. It is not a matter of which application is more convenient. You can certainly use horsepower in chemical applications, but you will need a time dimension using hp, (i.e. total energy released or taken / duration of the reaction), In this case power can be useful if you want the rate of reaction, but it will not be useful if you do not care about how fast the reaction needs to be done.

[@sureshkr1471]

Where is this 5252 comes..?

[@alibacanak8711]

which book you would like to learn more about the engine

[@svojasakdant2180]

You said torque is a special type of work (what means special type please explain this special type)

[@qualquan]

Author is playing fast and loose with terminology. Torque is NOT work nor HP. Torque is rotational FORCE. Work is Force multiplied by distance in direction of force and actually is TRANSFER of energy from one body to another. Power including horsepower is RATE of work or Work/time or F.d/t or Force x velocity. When using Torque as Force then Power or HP =Torque x RPM/5252

[@pepe6666]

yeah i kinda hit pause when he was like 'a pound-foot!'. im like ..yeah no.

[@heavycurrent7462]

Torque and work have the same SI unit, no? Also, torque is a product of force AND the distance between the force and the fulcrum. In a sense, torque IS work done on a rotating body. Else, correct me since I‘m a newbie

[@timvj9808]

@@heavycurrent7462 No it's correct. People are just arguing nomenclature, both torque and work are a product of force and distance. Hence they are essentially the same, however people prefer to look at the differently

[@minhcly95]

@@heavycurrent7462 Torque is the rotational force. Work is the difference in kinetic energy. They have the same unit but are different in principle. In work, distance and force are in the same direction. In torque, they are perpendicular. Work = Torque * ANGLE in radian. Power = Work / time = Torque * (angle / time) = Torque * rotational speed (in radian/s).

[@heavycurrent7462]

@@minhcly95 I‘ve asked a friend of mine who teaches physics in a university. He said there is no such thing as rotational force, except if it is also measured in Newton. "Torque is not a force in any way, but can be looked at as the work done to rotate a body about an axis." He also said the distance and force to measure torque are actually of the same direction, except that the direction is circular rather than straight (circumference). But we calculate the radius instead since in gearing, circumference and radius are directly proportional and the latter is easier to measure.

[@rijedbody756]

BTU and Joules are units of energy.. not power.. divide it by time.. then it will become unit of power.. example.. BTU/s or Joule/s=watts..

How come torque is work.

[@Vethursan1]

This is not the best example of explaing this topic. Also, Joules and BTU are not a measurement of power, it's work... And the HP illustration at the end could have been better, and was in fact misleading.

[@ZeroSleap]

Power=Work

[@iAmTheSquidThing]

Surely work is equivalent to energy? And that unit should be joules per second?

[@michaelryan2387]

Rogue Nero you're wrong.

[@Vethursan1]

Power is work done over time. Joules is a measurement of energy, so if you have a certain amount of energy being produced over time, you can say that there is a power being produced within this system. Joules = *Energy* Joules/sec = *Power*

[@ZeroSleap]

Yeah i noticed that it was straight joules and it actually confused me cause joules is just energy.I guess you are right.English is not my mother tongue so some terminology i dont understand,thanks anyway for answering

[@carbon273]

HP does not translate into Joules 1:35

[@martinholm8631]

HP = kW = Joules/Second . So it does and it doesn't.

[@martinholm8631]

Torque, on the other hand, does. 1 Nm = 1 Joule

[@katodisadeputki5695]

Nm is also unit of energy when 1 N force moves something 1 m distance, but Nm as unit of torque cannot be translated into energy!

[@mostafaabdelmageed4852]

but actually this is not practical case >>> for example if you rotate a motor on a frequency less than rated , its speed will decrease , and its torque will increase , its current will increase also>> return to torque speed cc.s curve and h.p

Torque is not equal to f*r .it is equal to the r*f(means r cross f)

[@GrindOne69]

This is totally wrong video. at 2:10 if speed decreases, HP should increase in order to remain a constant torque, instead, he says HP should decrease. It won't satisfy the mathematical expression.

[@sivakumars2705]

Wrong bro, simple logic if numerator(power) multiplies by x, then denominator(Speed) also be multiplies by same x to maintain the constant result(torque).

[@bojackson3073]

he didnt say the speed decreased due to load. if voltage is lowered, speed is lowered. if amps are lowered, torque is lowered.
