alright z50gaynationals give it up already...............put a sock in it

 

hey im learnin somethin here :happyguy

dont read it if you dont like it

 

just something one of my engineer friends pointed out to me
in your engineering books if you look it up
a 2 stroke motor doesnt work, but in real life it does
a bumblebee cannot fly, but in real life it does
these are his examples of how engineering books are as he puts it limited
to there information of real life
also he said you better go back and read more of ketterings books
that was one of the most simple rules of motors was heat
i asked a buddy that builds race motors how to explain it in simple terms
heres what he said "more heat allows you to burn more fuel, the more fuel you can burn the more horsepower you can make"
so although in your minds i may be gay or a hillbillie ill run mine against yours anytime and ill wave byebye to you
thermo and thermal both mean heat and heat IS horsepower
so tell me about a 2 stroke motor id love to hear that it dont work
cause your book says so

 

this was sent to me to give a more technical explanation:
Question - who originated the idea of a horespower?
What is the relation of the horsepower to a watt?
How is a BTU related to the joule?
Energy per unit time, as mentioned, is power. Units of power in common use
are horsepower (hp) for work, Btu/hr for heat, and Watt (W) for
electricity. As you expect these units are related. It is due to
historical precedent that terms other than W are used. In the metric
system, we can express all the above in Watts.
and
since im sure he will be picking his ***....
Horsepower goes back to the days when horses ruled the world, literally!
The Scottish Engineer and inventor, James Watt (1736-1819), introduced the
term "horsepower". The term was and is used to indicate the rate at which
an engine can deliver work. As such, it is a measure of power, that is,
energy produced or worked done by an engine per unit time.
Mr. Watt made considerable improvements to steam engines (which were
invented about 70 years earlier, in 1698, by Thomas Savery). His
improvements led to engines that were four times more efficient (used less
coal) than others, much smaller than before, and much more powerful (from
earlier 6 horsepower ones to about 200 horsepower). Oh, you could NOT fit
one under the hood, any hood).
Naturally, Mr. Watt wanted to tell how powerful his engines were.
So, after some tests (not with engines but with horses) he established that on the average, a horse could haul coal at the rate of 22,000 lb-ft per
min. For some reason, unknown to me, he decided the raise this number by
50% to arrive at 33,000 lb-ft per minutes (No, horses those days were not
on drugs; steroids were not known at that time, but I am sure Mr. Watt had
his own reasons for this increase).
So, if an engine can push 33,000 Lb of something one foot in one minute, we
say that is a one-horsepower engine. By the way, I believe that deliverable
power, also known as brake or shaft power, is the one used in automobile
industry in the US, and this indicates the practical ability of the engine,
i.e., engine power minus losses due to friction, compression, heat, etc.
Currently, there are two systems of units used: one is the metric system
used internationally, and the other one is the English systems used mostly
in the US. (That's right; we like the idea of being Royal -and loyal-
subjects!) Horsepower, as a unit of power, belongs to the English system
but I believe it is formally used in the metric system as well, and its
value is 32,549 lb-ft per min. The unit for power in the metric system is
Watt (W). Named after whom?
So, horsepower (abbreviated as hp) is a measure of power, as is Watt (We
come full circle, from Mr. Watt and horses to Horsepower and back to Watt!).
Now, let's for a moment talk about ENERGY. Work and heat are two forms of
energy. If you rub two pieces of metal together and work at it, they heat
up! Or if you take a metal bar and put it end-to end between two heavy
objects and heat up the rod by a torch, the rod will expand and push the
object apart. These two examples show that work and heat are forms of
energy and are convertible to one another. Electricity delivered to our
homes is also a form of energy.
Energy per unit time, as mentioned, is power. Units of power in common use
are horsepower (hp) for work, Btu/hr for heat, and Watt (W) for
electricity. As you expect these units are related. It is due to
historical precedent that terms other than W are used. In the metric
system, we can express all the above in Watts.
In any case, by referring to table of conversions, you will see that one
horsepower is 746 W and 2545 Btu/hr.
To summarize:
Power can be expressed in terms of horsepower, Btu/hr, or Watts. Energy,
which is power multiplied by time, is expressed, correspondingly, in lb-ft,
BTU, and Joules.
In particular, 1 W = 1 Joule per second. I BTU=1055 Joules.
Example: You turn on a 1000 W (=1 kilowatt) electric heater for one hour.
The power of the heater is, of course, 1000 W =1.34 hp = 3412 Btu/hr.
The energy used or the heat produced is commonly referred to as one
kilowatt hour = 1000 W x 3600 seconds = 3600 kilo Joules = 3412 Btu.
I hope the issue is clear now.
in other words go push your no heat no hp ford to the library and research some more biotch
or from the example: hop on yer HEATER and buz down the road at 1.34 HP

 

Ok now my fockin head hurts
