Injector "On" Time ms

Note that the injector "on" time rarely changes much with the increase of rpm's, it's a value mainly dependant on the desired AFR. The purpose of this calculator is for the use of mapping the mass air flow sensor to the injector "on" time. It is done at a low idle of around 1000rpm where the mass flow rate can be easily calculated, although not necessary.

Gas Constant J kg‾¹ K‾¹

Heat capacity ratio       (monoatomic - 1.67, diatomic - 1.4)

Velocity m/s

For air at 20°C (293.15 Kelvin) the gas constant is 287.058 J kg‾¹ K‾¹ and the heat capacity ratio is about 1.4 as it's mostly diatomic, which from the calculator should give a velocity of 343.2 m/s
