ELECTRICAL / MECHANICAL
APPLICATION FORMULAS

Power - AC Circuits, Power - DC Circuits, Mechanical, Fans & Blowers, Pump Motors

 

OHMS LAW

 

Volts (E) = Amps (I) x Ohms (R)
Amps (I) = Volts (E) / Ohms (R)
Ohms (R) = Volts (E) / Amps (I)R=Ohms, E=Volts, I=Amperes

 

POWER - AC CIRCUITS

 

Abbreviations: 

Eff. = Efficiency
 PF = Power Factor
 KW = Kilowatts
 HP = Horsepower

Efficiency = 746 x Output HP
Input Watts

 

 

3ÿ KW = Volts x Amps x PF x 1.732
1000
 

 

3ÿ Amps = 746 x HP
1.732 x Volts x Eff. x PF
 

 

3ÿ Eff. = 746 x HP
1.732 x Volts x Amps x PF
 

 

3ÿ PF = Input Watts
Volts x Amps x 1.732
 

 

1ÿ KW = Volts x Amps x PF
1000
 

 

1ÿ Amps = 746 x HP
Volts x Eff. x PF
 

 

1ÿ Eff. = 746 x HP
Volts x Amps x PF
 

 

1ÿ PF = Input Watts
Volts x Amps
 

 

HP (3ÿ) = Volts x Amps x 1.732 x Eff. x PF
746
 

 

HP (1ÿ) = Volts x Amps x Eff. x PF
746
 

 

1 KW = 1000 Watts

 

 

 

POWER - DC CIRCUITS

Watts = 

 Volts x Amps

Amps = Watts
Volts
HP = Volts x Amps x Eff.
746

 

MECHANICAL

Torque = HP x 5250
RPM

(Result is lb.ft. Multiply by 12 for lb.in.)

 

Torque = HP x 63025
RPM

(Result is in lb.in. Divide by 12 for lb.ft.)

 

HP =  Torque (lb.ft) x RPM
5250
HP = Torque (lb.in.) x RPM
63025
1 HP = 3 lb. ft. @ 1750 RPM
1 HP = 36 lb.in. @ 1750 RPM

 

FAN AND BLOWER MOTORS

Abbreviations:

CFM = Cubic Feet per Minute
Pressure lb.in./ sq.ft.

 

HP =  CFM x Pressure
33000 x Eff.

 

PUMP MOTORS

Abbreviations:
GPM - Gallons per Minute
S.G. - Specific Gravity
Eff. = Pump Efficiency
HP = GPM x Head in Feet x S.G.
3960 x Eff.
Head in Feet = 2.31 P.S.I.G.
