good formulas to know?

got any good ones to know?

i kinda was thinkin just out of curiosity maybe one to find FPM of a piston at X rpm and maybe other useful ones. i have a bunch for calculationg fuel and turbo stuff, i'll post up if it seems pertainent.

I'm spoiled now, I use software that calculates about 25 different aspects of an engine configuration all at once.

The individual formulas are out there thou.

gah! make me do it the hard way will ya!! lol

Jim, care to rup off a copy of that (probably $5000) software!? lol

piston speed=stroke x 2 x RPM / 12

any other good ones to know?

ok.. well, here. lol

Piston speed = stroke x 2 x RPM / 12

Port velocity = (bore^2/port_dia^2)*mean_piston_speed

CFM = 3456 / (C.I.D x RPM [max]) **this formula assumes 100% VE**

CFM = ( cid X .5 X Ve X rpm ) / 1728 (use 1.0 for 2 stroke engines)

Cubic inches =Cubic Centimeters/16.387

Injector sizing (in cc's) = (HP x B.M.F.C)/ (# of injectors x .80 (duty cycle))

Flow rate(modified) = (sq.rt of new rail pressure/old rail pressure) x old flow rate

BSFC = lb/hr of fuel / BHP

Fuel requirement = Horsepower x BSFC

Lbs/hr = HP x .5

GPH = Lbs/hr / 6

Pressure = V^2 / 57,600 (bernoulli's principle. v=velocity)


for turbo

Pressure ratio =Pb+Pa/Pa (pa= atmospheric (14.7), pb= boost)
PR=(14.7 + psi ) / 14.7

CFM = [(DxCIDxMAX RPM)/1728]xVExDR

CFM = L x RPM x VE x PR / 5660

Boosted CFM = PR x CFM

Turbine trim = [ (inducer^2) / (exducer^2) ] x 100






what else can i get to add to the list?
