A. lie- Waters, chief engineer of tho Htiick Motor company, we must fio back to tho year 1705. At that time James Watt had perfected Iris steam engine to a. degree that made. It practical, he j 1UU11U U KtOnl tlccll Ul UJIUll!UU IU eftorts and in order to stimulate sales he found it necessary to educate the people to the value of his invention. Watt knew that he ;WOUld have to find some way of accurately contrast In the power of his steam engine ngninst the power of horses, because the mine owners wore not familiar with any other form of pnwor. His first task, therefore, was to find out Just how much power the avorage work horse possessed, Just how much work a horse could do In a certain length of time. After a long series of tests he , ascertained that the . average work horse could lift a weight of 150 pounds 2Vi miles per hour for 10 hours a day. I To express this In other terms, the javcrage horse could do work eqtilva 'lont to lifting 33,000 pounds ono foot ;In one minute. The torm "horne- J powor," therefore, means tho amount of power required to lift 33,000 pounds one foot in one minute. It has exactly the same meaning whether applied to a steam engine, a gasoline engine or an electric motor. Tho device most commonly used -In determining actual horsepower of a motor : Is called the dymtmometor. This word Is a combination of the two words "dynamo" and "meter." It means,' as its names indicate, a measuring dynamo. In testing an au tomobile for actutil horsepower, the gasoline motor and the electric dy namo are hitched together. The gaso lino motor is then started and Us capacity, for work is dotermlned by suitable resistance and pleasuring In struments. - Electrical horsepower Is measured in watts, ono mechanical horsepower being equal to 74 ti watts of electric current. In other words, 7-16 watts Is equal to 33,000 foot pounds per minute. In the dynamometer test all factors aro taken Into consideration. The motor is put on a stand and connected up Just as it Is when in uso. . It is then started and as It develops power the indicating dials show the exact amount of resistance offered.' The dials show when tho motor reaches the top of Its power curve: that is, tho speed at which the motor develops Its maxi mum of power. If, at th1op of Its powor curve, tho dials show that enough electrical units to equal 60 horsepower are operating against It, then the actual horsepower of that motor is 50 horsepower.
