Air Density Calculation
- StdAirDensity = 1.22556 and is defined at
59.0F degrees, 0.0% humidity, and 29.92 inches
on the barometer.
-
- Temp_c = (Temp-32.0) * 5.0 / 9.0;
- Temp_k = Temp_c + 273.0;
- Baro_mb = Barometer / (29.92 / 1013.0);
- Baro_pa = Baro_mb * 100.0;
- SaturationPressure_mb = 6.11 *
pow(10,(7.5*Temp_c)/(237.7+Temp_c));
- VaporPressure_mb = Humidity *
SaturationPressure_mb / 100.0;
- TempVirtual_k = Temp_k / (1.0 -
(VaporPressure_mb/Baro_mb)*(1.-0.622));
- // D = P/(T*R)
- AirDensity = Baro_pa /
(TempVirtual_k*GasConstant);
- % Std Density =
AirDensity/StdAirDensity*100

- To figure miles per hour, multiply the
engine RPM by the Wheel Diameter in inches and
divide this by the Gear Ratio times 336
- or
- MPH = RPM * wheel diameter (in inches) /
gear ratio * 336
|
To figure engine speed (RPM), multiply by the
Speed in MPH, by the rear axle gear ratio times
336. Divide this by the tire diameter in
inches.
or
RPM = MPH * gear ratio * 336 / tire diameter
