What is the engine RPM at 120 km/h on the highway?
1 Answers
When the speed reaches 120 km/h, the engine RPM is generally around 3400. Here is some related information about RPM: 1. The engine RPM is related to the number of power strokes per unit time or the effective power output of the engine. That is, the effective power of the engine varies with different RPMs. Therefore, when indicating the effective power of an engine, the corresponding RPM must also be specified. The effective power and its corresponding RPM specified on the engine nameplate are referred to as the rated power and rated RPM, respectively. The operating condition of the engine at rated power and rated RPM is called the rated condition. 2. The rated power is not the maximum power the engine can produce; it is the maximum usable limit of effective power determined based on the engine's intended use. For the same model of engine, the rated power value may differ depending on its application. The effective torque also varies with the engine's operating condition. Therefore, the maximum torque a car engine can output and its corresponding RPM are used as one of the indicators to evaluate the engine's performance.
