    Default Can someone help me out with calc.pids

    I went through my calc_pids text and to me it looks messed up I tried to piece together what all you guys are using and think I got alot that aren't needed and mixed up some that are. My LTFT ones are golden I just need the AFR ones. Basically to log AFR, EQ, AFR BEN correction, EQ BEN correction. OR if you can clean mine up i'd appreciate it.

    The formula for CALC.BENS1 should be "({GM.EQIVRATIO}/{EXT.WO2EQR1})"
    and the units changed to factor.
    I don't know what "({GM.EQIVRATIO}*{EXT.WO2LAM1})" will give you.

    The commanded AFR PID (from EQ) should be "(the value of {B3601}/{GM.EQIVRATIO})"
    Multiple sets based on different AFR values may cause some confusion.
    If you change {B3601} then simply paste the value into the PID expression.

    I have found {GM.AFR} to be out of sync with {GM.EQIVRATIO}, so don't waste a channel on it.

    Yeah I really don't plan on using analog WB anyways, If I do i'll come to that road later. I just want to make sure when I get a BEN factor that it's right and i'm using the right ones. All the pids I require show up as supported but i'm not 100% sure the formulas are correct.

    Default Calc_pids.txt file for 4.3L engine displacement

    Are you obtaining the AFR/LAM/EQR from the LC-1 using serial comms...?

    [ ok, I see we can we eliminate the analog LC-1 pids ]

    Your engine displacement is 4.3L...?

    See attached cleaned up file.

    Edit: I decided I didn't like AFR in CLC-00-110 so I deleted the AFR portion of CLC-00-110 [it refused to work right] (see attached).
    Edit: I decided to simplify CLC-00-110 so I deleted the EQR portion of CLC-00-110 [it ok, but it was complicated] (see attached).

    Note: the attached calc pid file include's pavetim's diesel mpg pid (won't work on gas PCM's).

    You already know that that is the same as "({GM.EQIVRATIO}/{EXT.WO2EQR1})", right...?



    lam = 1/eqr

    Honestly Joe I don't know much about EQ and lambda. Until I learn better I use afr cause I know afr.

    They are related as follows:

    For commanded air/fuel:
    AFR = stoichAFR * Lambda = stoichAFR / EQR

    For wideband air/fuel:
    AFR = stoichAFR * Lambda = stoichAFR / EQR


    i.e. AFR is always proportial to Lambda (i.e. multiplied by the stoichAFR) and inversely proportional to EQR.


    i.e. note that Lambda = 1/EQR.

    Commanded EQR is handy because it quickly tells you how rich/lean is being commanded regardless of fuel used (e.g. EQR 1.2 is 20% rich for any fuel).

    Wideband Lambda is handy because is quickly tells you how much to multiply VE or MAF by to correct it (e.g. Lambda 0.83 means multiply by 0.83 regardless of fuel).

    what about this one Joe I noticed you got rid of it. Its the new one Shawn made.
    *CLC-00-301
    % 0.0 100.0 .2 "{SAE.MAF.gps}*({GM.DYNAIRTMP_DMA.C}+273.15)*3445. 2/(4.300*{SAE.RPM}*{SAE.MAP.kPa})*{CALC.BEN1}"
    VE 0.0 3.0 .4 "{SAE.MAF.gps}*({GM.DYNAIRTMP_DMA.C}+273.15)*1 5/({SAE.RPM}*{SAE.MAP.kPa})*{CALC.BEN1}"

    I changed it to use the newly named CALC.WO2BEN1 pid which does the exact same thing as CALC.BEN1 but using the CLC-00-110 which allows the BEN to be calculated by one of three forms (you choose the form by specifying the units).
