If the torque measured from the propulsion shaft immediately
behind the reduction gear of a ship's engine and revolution is
6,000 kN∙m and the power transfer efficiency from that is 97% and
the propeller is rotating 86 times per minute, how many horsepower
(hp) is the propeller delivered?
(However, 0.748 kW = 1 hp)
