T = Fr, where F is a force perpendicular to a radius.

It cannot be calculated for any moving object.

If you need to ask that question in that form you should really read up on basic physics and mechanics.

I think the the OP wants to know how to "measure" torque for a rotating object. He seems to be a professional and I'm assuming he knows the basic formula. MACA is right that you can't calculate it for a moving object. Torque has no velocity component and the value is based on a static condition. He should not have gotten an off topic rating for his reply.

You can "measure" torque with a dyno.

There are strain type sensors available for this purpose.

Why has my comment and terramans comment been given an off topic when both clearly relate directly to the original post? If you disagree then say so and why but don't hide behind an off topic flag.

Yeah, good point. What's up with that? Codemaster's comment is way off topic and he didn't get slammed.

Well I'm kinda new here so that might explain it for me. Nodody likes the new kid!

It's either that or...that I'm a Canadian!

Mate, I don't think it matters.

If people are only capable of voicing their opinion through an anonymous flag then they clearly have no valuable arguement and are under the illusion that they can gain some kind of credence to their feeble views by falsely claiming someone elses educated opinion is of no value.

As Mr Kipling said "If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools...you'll be a Man, my son"

For all those who posted off topic to our previous posts if you would like a translation of the above please reply to this as being off topic and give your name. I'll get back to you soon.

Also, T(lb-ft) ≈ 5252 (hp)/rpm.
