Convert horsepower (water) to newton meter/second

Please provide values below to convert horsepower (water) [hp (water)] to newton meter/second [N*m/s], or Convert newton meter/second to horsepower (water).




How to Convert Horsepower (Water) to Newton Meter/second

1 hp (water) = 746.043 N*m/s

Example: convert 15 hp (water) to N*m/s:
15 hp (water) = 15 Γ— 746.043 N*m/s = 11190.645 N*m/s

Horsepower (Water)

Horsepower (water) is a unit of power used to measure the rate of water flow or energy transfer, based on the power exerted by a water stream.

History/Origin

The water horsepower originated in the 19th century as a way to quantify the power of water wheels and turbines, with its value historically linked to the energy produced by a specific flow of water under certain conditions.

Current Use

Today, water horsepower is primarily used in hydraulic engineering and water power industries to specify the capacity of water turbines, pumps, and other hydraulic equipment.


Newton Meter/second

A unit of power representing one newton meter of work done per second, equivalent to a watt.

History/Origin

The newton meter/second has been used in physics and engineering to quantify power, especially in contexts involving torque and rotational work, aligning with the SI system's units for work and time.

Current Use

Primarily used in engineering and physics to measure power in systems involving torque and rotational motion, often interchangeably with watts in SI units.
