Fuel injector duty arithmetic calculator

Calculate nominal requested open-time duty and nominal spacing between event starts with your own figures.

Your numbers

Use the units shown. Results update as you change valid inputs.

Use nominal requested open-time duty and nominal spacing between event starts to compare changes to your inputs. The method and limits below explain the scope.

Examples

Examples

Try the starting example

Supplied pulse open duration (ms)
6
Engine RPM
6000
Supplied injection events per crankshaft revolution
0.5
Nominal requested open-time duty (%)
30
Nominal spacing between event starts (ms)
20
Requested injector-open seconds per minute
18
Requested duty above 100 percentage points
0

Try another scenario

Supplied pulse open duration (ms)
12
Engine RPM
6000
Supplied injection events per crankshaft revolution
0.5
Nominal requested open-time duty (%)

Calculation method

Calculation method

Nominal requested open-time duty (%)

Pulse ms×RPM×events/revolution/600, with no physical clipping.

Nominal spacing between event starts (ms)

60000/(RPM×events/revolution); undefined at zero RPM.

Requested injector-open seconds per minute

Pulse ms×RPM×events/revolution/1000.

Requested duty above 100 percentage points

max(0,duty−100), exposing overlapping requested pulses rather than implying achievable flow.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • A supplied pulse-timing arithmetic model, not an ECU log decoder, fuel-delivery estimate or tuning recommendation. Event frequency, dead time, pressure and actual actuator behavior are external.
