  2. Horsepower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horsepower

    indicated or gross horsepower is the theoretical capability of the engine [PLAN/ 33000]; brake/net/crankshaft horsepower (power delivered directly to and measured at the engine's crankshaft) equals indicated horsepower minus frictional losses within the engine (bearing drag, rod and crankshaft windage losses, oil film drag, etc.);

  3. Chevrolet small-block engine (first- and second-generation)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_small-block...

    A high-performance 327 cu in (5.4 L) variant followed, turning out as much as 375 hp (280 kW) (SAE gross power, not SAE net power or the current SAE certified power values) and raising horsepower per cubic inch to 1.15 hp (0.86 kW). From 1954 to 1974, the small-block engine was known as the "Turbo-Fire" or "High Torque" V8.

  4. Power-to-weight ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-to-weight_ratio

    Battery discharge profiles are often described in terms of a factor of battery capacity. For example, a battery with a nominal capacity quoted in ampere-hours (Ah) at a C/10 rated discharge current (derived in amperes) may safely provide a higher discharge current – and therefore higher power-to-weight ratio – but only with a lower energy ...

  5. Ford small block engine - Wikipedia

    Emission regulations caused a progressive reduction in compression ratio for the 302 two-barrel, to 9.0:1 in 1972, reducing SAE gross horsepower to 210 hp (157 kW). In that year, U.S. automakers began to quote horsepower in SAE net ratings; the 302 two-barrel carried a net rating of 140 hp (104 kW).

  6. AMC V8 engine - Wikipedia

    The 304 has a displacement of 304 cu in (5.0 L), which produced 210 hp (157 kW; 213 PS)(gross rating) in 1970-71 and was built starting in 1970. [20] Output declined yearly thereafter, initially due a shift from SAE Gross to SAE Net horsepower. 1972-75 models were rated at 150 hp (112 kW; 152 PS) (net rating from 1972 onwards).

  8. Cadillac V8 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadillac_V8_engine

    At its introduction it was rated at 400 hp (298 kW), SAE gross, and 550 lb⋅ft (746 N⋅m) of torque. For 1971, compression was reduced from 10.0:1 to 8.5:1, the lowered compression ratio dropped the 500's gross output from 400 bhp (298 kW) to 365 bhp (272 kW), or 235 hp (175 kW) in the new SAE net ratings. By 1976, its final year, it had ...

  9. Gallon per watt-hour - Wikipedia

    Simply stated G/Wh links efficiency and performance by illustrating how many gallons of water are pumped using one watt hour of electricity. To calculate G/Wh, take the gallons per hour (GPH) pumped, divided by the power the pump consumes in watts. GPH/W = G/Wh
