What do maximum power RPM and maximum torque RPM mean?
1 Answers
Here are the differences between the two: 1. Maximum power RPM refers to the crankshaft speed at which the engine outputs its maximum power, which is a key parameter for evaluating engine performance. A higher power RPM indicates stronger power and faster acceleration. 2. Maximum torque RPM refers to the medium-low speed range at which the engine generates torque within a unit time. Below are detailed explanations about both: 1. There is no direct comparison between manual and automatic transmission vehicles regarding power RPM and torque RPM, as different vehicle models correspond to different RPM and torque RPM values. Engine performance can be assessed based on these two parameters. 2. There are three main factors affecting engine performance: maximum torque RPM, the engine's torque curve, and the reduction ratio. During normal high-speed driving, the engine's output power increases, and the RPM rises accordingly. As acceleration continues, the RPM gradually climbs. 3. After the engine reaches its maximum output power, the RPM will decrease slightly.
