Torque backup is generally applicable to low speed diesel engines which are primarily used for high torque applications like tractors and off highway vehicles.

Generally torque backup is expressed in percentage

Torque backup = (max Torque - rated speed torque)/rated speed torque in %

This generally means how much the engine can be loaded when its rpm drops to max torque rpm. Usually all OEM try to give maximum backup torque from their engines. But it is limited by volumetric efficiency at lower rpm for NA engines and for TC engines it can be more.

Don't know what you mean by "set up". Torque wrenches come ready to use. Attach a socket and go to it.


What is tension and torque have to do with bridges?

Torque is used in bridges to lift a portion of it up, right! Well at the hinges the machine applies a force outwards and by newtons's third law of motion their will exist another equally opposite force on the other side of the bridge. Thus the torque develops.

Back up? Do you mean Forever and Always, where she says: back up, baby, back up, did you forget everything? . In case you mean this song, she is singing about Joe Jonas.


RPMs in a cadillac go up and down at high speed?

Your car most likely has an automatic transmission. If you're noticing the rpms going up and down it is because your automatic transmission is using its torque converter. it uses the torque converter to get the transmission up to speed with the engine and then it locks but when the torque gets to be too much for the engine it unlocks and speeds back up again.


Does a bike chain apply torque?

Yes. The chain applies a linear force to the cog on the rear wheel. It pulls it forward when we "go" on the bike. The teeth on the cog, where the linear force is applied, are arranged around the center of rotation of the rear axle. This applies a force to the axle that is "off center" with the axis of rotation of the axle. The axle is perpendicular to the plane of the cog, and this is true. But the actual "pull" of the chain is on the back teeth and the top teeth of the cog. The axle cannot move forward because it is fixed, but the axle can rotate because a good portion of the force applied to it causes it to turn. A bike chain applies torque to the rear wheel. Torque is a momentary force, and in the case of the bike chain, a continuous series of moments of force applied to the rear wheel by the chain turns the rear wheel. Another way to look at the problem is to consider that the feet move up and down (and a little forward and back) on the pedals. The crank and chain ring turn around. The chain moves in a line or displays linear motion, and the rear wheel displays rotary motion. The transition from linear motion to rotary motion applies the idea of torque.

How do you put a torque converter in th350 Chevy?

I assume you have the transmission out of the car. It has to be out to replace the torque converter. The old torque converter will just pull off, but you may have to spin it back and forth a couple of times. When you install the new one, slide it on the shaft and spin it back and forth while pushing it towards the transmission and it will slide back towards the transmission. You have to do this again, because it has two sets of gears that it has to engage. If it doesn,t slide back twice, you will never get the transmission to slide up to the motor correctly. You may get bolts in it, but you will break something trying to tighten the bolts. If the transmission does not slide up to the motor without a lot of force, you do not have the torque converter on all the way. If it does, you should be able to bolt the transmission to the engine fairly easily. Once the transmission is bolted up correctly, you can turn the flywheel to line up the three bolts that hold the torque converter to the flywheel. Make sure you torque the flywheel to converter bolts to the specified torque settings, and they will vary according to the specific transmission, usually around 45 FT LBS.
