(OT) Question for the engineers on the list
OK, I need some mechanical engineering advice. I'm working with a small
tractor that has a diesel rated at 14HP. It has a mid-mounted PTO rated at
11HP at the shaft at 2200RPM. I am going to reduce that through a 1:4 gear
ratio chain and gear setup at the rear to run at the standard 540 RPM for a
tractor PTO. If I do this, will I in fact get more HP at the PTO? Like say
44HP???
Anyone? Daun, you're a farmboy, any ideas?
