  2. Revolutions per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolutions_per_minute

    1 / 60 ⁠ Hz = 0.01 6 Hz. SI base units. 0.01 6 s −1. Revolutions per minute (abbreviated rpm, RPM, rev/min, r/min, or r⋅min−1) is a unit of rotational speed (or rotational frequency) for rotating machines. One revolution per minute is equivalent to ⁠ 1 60 ⁠ hertz.

  3. Surface feet per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_feet_per_minute

    SFM is a combination of diameter and the velocity (RPM) of the material measured in feet-per-minute as the spindle of a milling machine or lathe. 1 SFM equals 0.00508 surface meter per second (meter per second, or m/s, is the SI unit of speed). The faster the spindle turns, and/or the larger the diameter, the higher the SFM.

  4. Rotational frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational_frequency

    Rotational frequency, also known as rotational speed or rate of rotation (symbols ν, lowercase Greek nu, and also n), is the frequency of rotation of an object around an axis. Its SI unit is the reciprocal seconds (s −1 ); other common units of measurement include the hertz (Hz), cycles per second (cps), and revolutions per minute (rpm).

  5. Specific speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_speed

    Expressed in metric units, the "specific speed" is ns = 0.2626 n √P / h5/4. where n is the wheel speed in rpm. P is the power in kilowatts. h is the water head in meters. The factor 0.2626 is only required when the specific speed is to be adjusted to English units.

  6. Piston motion equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piston_motion_equations

    The reciprocating motion of a non-offset piston connected to a rotating crank through a connecting rod (as would be found in internal combustion engines) can be expressed by equations of motion. This article shows how these equations of motion can be derived using calculus as functions of angle (angle domain) and of time (time domain).

  7. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    The rating of a brushless motor is the ratio of the motor's unloaded rotational speed (measured in RPM) to the peak (not RMS) voltage on the wires connected to the coils (the back EMF). For example, an unloaded motor of K v {\displaystyle K_{\text{v}}} = 5,700 rpm/V supplied with 11.1 V will run at a nominal speed of 63,270 rpm (= 5,700 rpm/V ...

  8. Shear rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_rate

    The shear rate for a fluid flowing between two parallel plates, one moving at a constant speed and the other one stationary (Couette flow), is defined by. where: γ ˙ {\displaystyle {\dot {\gamma }}} is the shear rate, measured in reciprocal seconds; v is the velocity of the moving plate, measured in meters per second; h is the distance ...

  9. Torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque

    The horizontal axis shows the rotational speed (in rpm) that the crankshaft is turning, and the vertical axis is the torque (in newton-metres) that the engine is capable of providing at that speed. Torque forms part of the basic specification of an engine : the power output of an engine is expressed as its torque multiplied by the angular speed ...
