| Specific power |
|
Relationship between the peak power obtained from an engine and its cylinder capacity. It is used to compare the yield in engines with different cylinder capacities. It is the result of multiplying the engine torque by the number of revolutions. The highest specific power is obtained from small dispalcement engines that have very high revs. Among cars up to 100 horsepower and 120 horsepower has been achieved per litre.
