Torque conversion

Description

A tool for converting between common torque units such as Newton-metre (N·m), Kilogram-meter (kgf·m), Foot-pound (ft·lbf), and Inch-pound (in·lbf).

This calculator allows you to convert torque values between different units used in mechanical engineering, automotive design, and industrial applications. Input one value, and all others are automatically calculated.

Supported Units & Conversion Factors

Unit Full Name Relation to Newton-metre (N·m)
N·m Newton-metre 1 N·m = 1 N·m
kgf·m Kilogram-meter 1 kgf·m ≈ 9.80665 N·m
ft·lbf Foot-pound 1 ft·lbf ≈ 1.35582 N·m
in·lbf Inch-pound 1 in·lbf ≈ 0.112985 N·m

Example Calculations

Example 1:
Engine torque = 300 N·m
Then:
- kgf·m = 300 / 9.80665 ≈ 30.6 kgf·m
- ft·lbf = 300 × 0.73756 ≈ 221.3 ft·lbf

Example 2:
Bolt tightening torque = 40 in·lbf
Then:
- N·m = 40 × 0.112985 ≈ 4.52 N·m
- ft·lbf = 40 / 12 = 3.33 ft·lbf

Use Cases

  • Automotive engine torque specification
  • Motor and gearbox selection
  • Bolt tightening torque setting
  • Mechanical design and dynamics analysis
  • Academic learning and exams

Ah-kWh conversion
Ah-kWh conversion
A web-based tool for converting battery capacity between Amp-hours (Ah) and Kilowatt-hours (kWh), ideal for electric vehicles, energy storage systems, and solar power applications. This calculator helps users convert charge capacity (Ah) into energy (kWh), with clear explanations of key battery parameters for better understanding of battery performance and state. Parameter Definitions Parameter Description Capacity Battery capacity in Amp-hours (Ah) , indicating how much current the battery can deliver over time. Kilowatt-hours (kWh) is a unit of energy representing the total stored or delivered power. Formula: kWh = Ah × Voltage (V) ÷ 1000 Voltage (V) The electrical potential difference between two points, measured in volts (V). Essential for energy calculation. Depth of Discharge (DoD) The percentage of battery capacity that has been discharged relative to the total capacity. - Complementary to State of Charge (SoC): SoC + DoD = 100% - Can be expressed as % or in Ah - Actual capacity may exceed nominal, so DoD can go beyond 100% (e.g., up to 110%) State of Charge (SoC) The remaining battery charge as a percentage of total capacity. 0% = empty, 100% = full. Depleted Capacity The total amount of energy drawn from the battery, in kWh or Ah. Example Calculation Battery: 50 Ah, 48 V If Depth of Discharge (DoD) = 80% → Energy = 50 × 48 / 1000 = 2.4 kWh Depleted Energy = 2.4 × 80% = 1.92 kWh Use Cases Estimating EV driving range Designing home energy storage systems Calculating available energy in off-grid solar setups Analyzing battery cycle life and efficiency
