How Many Horsepower Does a 195 Diesel Engine Have?

[JulietteDella]

The 195 diesel engine has 265.2 horsepower. 1 horsepower = 0.735 kilowatts. 1 kilowatt = 1.36 horsepower. The meaning of horsepower: Horsepower is a commonly used unit of power measurement in engineering technology, proposed by James Watt. 1 horsepower is approximately equal to 735 watts. It generally refers to metric horsepower rather than imperial horsepower. The origin of horsepower: More than 200 years ago, engineers manufactured the world's first batch of improved steam engines based on the design of the British engineer James Watt. A brewery ordered one to replace horses in driving a water pump. The brewery owner wanted to determine whether the steam engine's production efficiency could match that of a horse. Therefore, he selected the strongest horse from his stable and made it work continuously for 8 hours without stopping, calculating that during this period, the horse pumped over 2 million kilograms of water.
