Mechanical hp used in the United States and less often in the U.K. in machinery and automotive industry and was defined as 1 hp = 33,000 ft·lbf/min = 0.74569987158 kW (Kilowatts). Please note that mechanical h.p. is about 1.4% more than metric horsepower. US mechanical h.p. is primary used on domestic market, that means that cars, SUVs and trucks made in United States but sold outside of the USA can be marketed with metric horsepower and other metric specifications. This online calculator provides conversion of US mechanical Horsepower to Kilowatts and backwards kW to American hp. |
