Useful Formulas
OHMS LAW
-
Ohms = Volts Amperes
-
Amperes = Volts Ohms
-
Volts = Amperes x Ohms
POWER - A. C. CIRCUITS
-
Power Factor = Watts (Volts x Amperes)
-
Three Phase Kilowatts = (Volts x Amperes x Power Factor x 1.732) 1000
-
Three Phase Volt-Amperes = Volts x Amperes x 1.732
-
Three Phase Amperes = (746 x Horsepower) (1.732 x Volts x Efficiency x Power Factor)
-
Single Phase Kilowatts = (Volts x Amperes x Power Factor)1000
-
Single Phase Amperes = (746 x Horsepower) (Volts x Efficiency x Power Factor)
POWER - D.C. CIRCUITS
-
Watts = Volts x Amperes
-
Amperes = Watts Volts
-
Horsepower = (Volts x Amperes x Efficiency) 746
MOTOR APPLICATION FORMULAS
-
Torque (lbs.-ft.) = (Horsepower x 5250) RPM
-
Shaft Stress (lbs. per sq. inch) = (Horsepower x 321000) (RPM x Shaft Diam3)
FOR PUMPS
-
Horsepower = (GPM x Head in Feet x Specific Gravity) (3960 x Efficiency of Pump)
FOR FANS & BLOWERS
- Horsepower = (CFM x Pressure (lbs. per sq. ft.)) (33000 x Efficiency
SPEED
-
Synchronous RPM = (Hertz x 120) Poles
-
Percent Slip = (Synchronous RPM - Full Load RPM) Synchronous RPM x 100
