Torque losses via drivetrain

MacGuberman · 11-08-2019, 01:46 PM

Are torque losses similar to HP losses through the drivetrain? Would one use the BHP to WHP estimated ratio?

My MHD logs show I'm up to about 640nm at the clutch. Just curious how the translates to torque at the wheels.

horsepower is the rate at which the engine produces torque... so yah. directly correlated.

That value in mhd meaningless to you. Don't use it to measure anything.
