That dictionary is wrong............ and no you can't call a motor a engine, because it isn't LOL it's a motor, they are two different things.
Motor is slang for engine, sometimes. My bestfriends dad would kick us out of the garage it we called an engine a motor.. LOL
An engine is a mechanical device that produces some form of output from a given input.
An engine whose purpose is to produce kinetic energy output from a fuel source is called a prime mover; alternatively, a motor is a device which produces kinetic energy from other forms of energy (such as electricity, a flow of hydraulic fluid or compressed air).
A motor car (automobile) has a starter motor and motors to drive pumps (fuel, power steering, etc) – but the power plant that propels the car is called an engine. The term 'motor' was originally used to distinguish the new internal combustion engine -powered vehicles from earlier vehicles powered by a steam engine (as in steam roller and motor roller).

I know that NASA and Boeing aircraft both use 60,000 hp motors on their wind tunnels.
We actually have in our possession the old motors off the Seattle wind tunnel. It was 36,000 hp wound rotor induction motor, 10 pole. It was coupled to a 20,000 hp synchronous motor thru an eddy-current coupling, and had a 450 hp wound rotor pony motor on the common shaft.
The 450 pony started the sync motor, which accelerated the 3600 thru the clutch. when the unit was up to slip speed, it was closed onto the power system to minimize impact on the utility.
I believe I read an article that both Siemens and ABB both have breached the 80,000 hp rating, but cannot find the article.

We have had this discussion here in the past, but I couldn't find it. At one time ABB was working on a 125,000HP motor and drive for Boeing's supersonic wind tunnel, but that got the axe when Boeing abandoned the SST for the 2nd time recently. "
Those are electric motors...... Not engines

I got it...you are correct because your friends father was irate when you used what he thought was the wrong term and the dictionary and thesaurus are wrong.
I hear what you are saying and I see your point...I just would not put it in print where all could see it
