What do RPM, TORK, CC and NM mean in a vehicle, know why these are most important
The most important part of any vehicle is its engine, whether it is a car or a bike, scooter, truck. If any of these is discussed then CC, BHP, Nm and RPM are often mentioned. But do you know what is the function of all these in the engine of the vehicle and why it is most important for every vehicle? Let us know what is CC, bhp nm and RPM in the engine.
Meaning of CC in engine
The engine capacity of any car is expressed in CC. Its full form is cubic capacity. The higher the CC of the engine, the bigger will be its cylinder. Moreover, vehicles with higher CC have a higher capacity to consume fuel and air as compared to normal vehicles.
The amount of empty space in the cylinder is equal to the CC of the car, which you can understand this way that if the engine capacity of one car is 2 liters and the capacity of another engine is 1.5 liters, then the car with 2 liter capacity will have a 2000 CC engine and the car with 1.5 liter capacity will have a 1500 CC engine.
what is bhp
The full form of BHP is Brake Horse Power. It is used to express the power of the engine. Small cars usually have a power of 100 to 120 bhp. Medium sized cars have 120 to 200 bhp power, super cars and high performance cars have more bhp power than this. The car has the capacity to run as fast as the bhp. However, torque also plays an important role in this.
What is the minimum meter or NM in a vehicle?
In vehicles, torque is measured in the minimum meter nm or it can be seen in lb-ft. If we understand it according to physics, then the work of this force is to bend or rotate an object. This tells you how much power the engine has to pull the car. When we start the car and accelerate it, a force is generated during this time with the help of which the engine is able to pull the car. The jerk that you feel during this time is called torque.
Role of RPM in Engine
The full form of RPM is Revolutions per minute. It tells how many times the crankshaft in the engine is rotating in 1 minute. You can understand it in this way that the number of times the piston in the engine moves up and down in 1 minute is also considered as RPM. Higher RPM means the engine will generate more power. Whatever power the engine generates reaches the wheels with the help of gears, this increases the speed of the car.
