Indicated Horsepower Formula

Indicated Horsepower (IHP):

\[ IHP = \frac{P \cdot L \cdot A \cdot N \cdot n}{33000 \cdot c} \]

Where:

  • \(IHP\) is the indicated horsepower in horsepower (hp).
  • \(P\) is the mean effective pressure in pounds per square inch (psi).
  • \(L\) is the length of the stroke in feet (ft).
  • \(A\) is the area of the bore in square inches (in²).
  • \(N\) is the crankshaft speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
  • \(n\) is the number of cylinders.
  • \(c\) is 2 for a four-stroke engine and 1 for a two-stroke engine.
