It means Brake Horsepower. It is an engine's horsepower measured without a loss in power caused by having all the accesories on in the car.
Pretty much horsepower measured with a load on the engine, transmission, drivetrain and electrical accessories.
HP is measured at the flywheel. WHP is the amount of HP that is actually being transferred to the wheels.

BHP stands for brake horsepower this is the horsepower produced while tested on an engine stand. Indicated horsepower is the final horsepower produced and measured after going through the driveline and measured at the wheels. RPM = the number of times the crsnkshaft rotates per minute or Revolutions Per Minute.

Has nothing to do with a vehicle on a roller to measure torque. It's an attempt to make a vehicle sound more powerful by rating it in BHP (British horse power).
The most popular unit of Power is the ‘Horse Power’, which from ancient times was the rate of work an ‘average horse’ could do. In scientific parlance today, it translates into 4,500 kg-m/min or 33,000 ft-pounds/min. In Metric System of Measurement, therefore, one ‘horsepower’ = 746 Watts.
In post-war Germany, ‘PS’ was and is still used – which was/is a functional equivalent of the ‘British’ Horse Power. In reality, it equates as 1.0 HP = 1.07 PS. Today, it seems the Car/Advertisers use ‘PS’ at least in India to mislead the gullible public - as the same HP/BHP ‘sounds’ a little higher when expressed in PS!

BHP means "break horse power" or is it which just means horse power. horse power is a way we measure how much power an engine has and how fast the "work" can be done. RPM means "rotation per minute" which measures how fast an engine's crankshaft is spinning (360 degrees) for every minute. hope this answers your question

Brake Horse Power. Or force measured on the dyno, which uses a drum roller and brake to provide resistance.

Brake Horse Power - is the amount of "horse power "(the amount of energy needed to raise 3300 lbs. one foot in one minute) measured at the drive wheels, through all the power train. It is always lower than Engine horse power.
