What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms power values from the unit horsepower (boiler), which measures thermal power for steam boilers, into horsepower (electric), a unit used to rate mechanical power output of electric motors.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in horsepower (boiler) that you want to convert
  • Select horsepower (boiler) as the input unit and horsepower (electric) as the output unit
  • Click the convert button to view the equivalent power in horsepower (electric)
  • Use the result to compare or specify equipment power ratings

Key Features

  • Converts boiler horsepower to electric horsepower with a standard conversion rate
  • Helps compare thermal and mechanical power ratings accurately
  • Provides quick and simple input-to-output conversion online
  • Ideal for use in industries like steam boiler manufacturing and electric motor applications

Examples

  • 1 horsepower (boiler) equals approximately 13.15 horsepower (electric)
  • 5 horsepower (boiler) equals approximately 65.75 horsepower (electric)

Common Use Cases

  • Rating the capacity of industrial steam boilers for heat generation
  • Comparing steam boiler thermal power to electric motor mechanical power
  • Sizing motor controllers and electrical supply based on converted horsepower
  • Preparing technical specifications and invoices involving power ratings

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure steady-state conditions for more accurate conversions
  • Remember that horsepower (boiler) represents thermal power, while horsepower (electric) indicates mechanical power
  • Use conversions as a comparison tool, not an exact performance indicator
  • Double-check equipment requirements when integrating heating and motor systems

Limitations

  • Conversion assumes standardized definitions without accounting for boiler efficiency variations
  • Electrical motor design and operating environment may affect actual power equivalencies
  • Thermal power and mechanical power measure different energy types, limiting direct performance comparisons

Frequently Asked Questions

What does horsepower (boiler) measure?
Horsepower (boiler) measures the thermal power required to evaporate a set amount of water per hour in steam boilers.

How is horsepower (electric) defined?
Horsepower (electric) is defined as exactly 746 watts, representing mechanical power output of electric motors.

Why convert horsepower (boiler) to horsepower (electric)?
Converting these units helps compare and integrate steam boiler thermal capacity with electric motor mechanical power in industrial settings.

Key Terminology
