GHP?
GHP?
(OP)
I am reviewing specifications of a truck required to have a turbocharged diesel engine of GHP 325 horsepower.
I understand BHP. I do not understand GHP.
Could this be gross horsepower?
I have found some stuff on Gas HorsePower, but this appears to have nothing to do with truck diesel engines.
Is this a typo?

RE: GHP?
fyi, searching the internet i came across this website:
http://www.dieselnet.com/news/1997/01jm.php
note the differences in the title and the summary.
then again, at this website, note the meaning of ghp at bottom of page:
http
short of getting clarification from the author, clarify the spec &/or the units of measurement to avoid any mis-understandings, etc.
good luck!

I was under the impression that gross horsepower was that generated by an engine without any accessories such as water pump and generator, and that nett horsepower was that generated by the same engine with those accessories added.
