Calculating mass air flow at a certain rpm at WOT on a naturally aspirated engine, assuming that the VE is at 100% to approximate the injector pulse width for a starting point is simple.
But is there a way to calculate the mass air flow or VE at a certain manifold pressure where the throttle is not at WOT (cruise) or when there is a overpressure (boosted engine)?
Air density would change, that can be calculated fairly easy, but the mass air flow?
It would be awesome to calculate that for a starting point and then adjust while looking at the lambda.
I built a spreadsheet that would calculate Grams per Second with "knowns" and some "assumptions" when I worked at Identifix (Automotive Technical Hotline for professional Technicians in the aftermarket).
