HCMP
hybrid and combustion metering for propane

I know it is basic but I had problems with this and it should help people with hybrid fueling.

tell me if you like it

edit: now has propane, butane, and mapp

[Counterstriker]

Picture not working for me.

[bigbob12345]

this is really well done and completely accurate
I like it a lot, will give me a break from that calculator for a while

counterstriker:it is a fuel and meter calculator, just pres the download button

[pat123]

Thanks it only took about 5 minutes to make. I am going to add some more stuff to it soon.

[daberno123]

Very Nice!

Easy, simple, and user-friendly. A lot less confusing than other calculators I've tried to use. Good work!

Edit: what else are you planning to add?

[pat123]

a way to find chamber and barrel volume. Do guys see anything else that I should add? I updated it a little, I'll post the new version tomorrow.

[jon_89]

This is great. Quick question though. A 1x mix is just regular combustion right? I would suggest maybe doing half mixes like 2.5x or 3.5x mix because I see many people doing this.

[MrCrowley]

Cool bananas, will test it soon

Edit: Just noticed the equation uses .953, now I could be wrong here, but glancing over SB15's topic, which I think you based this off, he used .958 for propane...

There's probably some crystal clear explanation I just looked over.

Oh and I also made a second sheet for MAPP gas, as i'll probably be using that.

Thanks

I got slightly different results:
For 100 ci chamber
25 ci volume of pressure meter.

My program:

For 3x, i got 7.73 psi
For 4x, i got 10.3 psi

Your program:
3x i got 8.69 psi
4x i got 11.59 psi

Just slightly off but i could make a big difference.

[starman]

Your calculator predicted a little high on mine too, 74 psi. I predicted and have been using 63 PSI. 225 CI chamber, 2.2 CI meter. My calc may be wrong, I'll check mine again.

I just uploaded a new version.

thanks i just changed that. by the way thanks to SB15 for all of the formulas in the first place

This is great. Quick question though. A 1x mix is just regular combustion right? I would suggest maybe doing half mixes like 2.5x or 3.5x mix because I see many people doing this.

yep 1x is normal combustion. I'll add those too.

Oh and I also made a second sheet for MAPP gas, as i'll probably be using that.

If you don't mind giving it to me Ill add that to it too.

This thread reminds me. I need to update my CO2 calculator thread.

Pat, if you want, I can send you a copy of mine so you can add to this. I posted the original a while back, but I have since made updates to it, including more accurate CO2 data, as well as high pressured air data. If you're interested in throwing in a little pneumatics with this, just let me know.

Oh, and have you considered adding butane to your spreadsheet. A lot of members use it, too.

[daberno123]

Just downloaded the newer copy. Only complaint is the yellow background...my eyes...they burn.

Oh and you should definitely make different sheets for different fuels

[pat123]

I'll take co2, air, butane, etc. just need a new name.

[pat123]

I updated it now it works for mapp, propane, and butane. I need someone to check over it and make sure it is right for butane and mapp gas.
