To establish the "largest" category, several factors take precedence: overall weight, which gives traction over driving axles; size (length and height of engine itself); and power, which may be in terms of raw horsepower, tractive effort, available power at axles (shaft horsepower) or, in the case of steam locomotives, available steam on a ...
Shaft horsepower (shp) is the power delivered to a propeller shaft, a turbine shaft, or to an output shaft of an automotive transmission. [32] Shaft horsepower is a common rating for turboshaft and turboprop engines, industrial turbines, and some marine applications. Equivalent shaft horsepower (eshp) is sometimes used to rate turboprop engines ...
