Some of mechanical engineering courses I recall since I was an electrical engineer, is that Horsepower is a function of Torque X RPM. Therefore, if torque remained the same and you doubled the speed, HP doubles.
An engine isn"t a pump, however, yet the laws of thermodynamics and energy conservation hold true for any device. The energy you put into a device (such as say HP) is more then you get out (in say HP) since the device IS NOT perfect and has heat and other friction losses. But a machine doesnt create or destroy energy only change its form so X energy in = the sum of energy out PLUS heat/friction losses. ENERGY ISNT CREATED OR DESTROYED IN THE MECHANICAL PROCESS JUST CHANGED IN FORM SUCH AS CONVERTED TO HEAT.
Hope this helps
John T Electrical NOT Mechanical Engineer so no warranty, this may or may not be right or wrong and Im NOT saying if it is or it isn"t, SO DONT ANYONE HAVE A CALF

The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
