conversion of injector pulse width to duty cycle?

can anybody post a spreadsheet that I can plug #'s into???
and what #'s do I use to get the injector pulses for my entire engine plot like that...
I could probably make a spredsheet myself if I knew where to get a full table of my injector pulses........
I have HPTuners by the way

As for where to get the info... your scanner... log injector pulse width and then use the formulas that are listed... IPW will be in seconds, you just need to log RPM, and IPW ... 1200 is a constant
http://www.transamws6.net/HPTuners/injpwcalc.xls is the same thing that's been posted for download
RedHardSupra: hope you don't mind me duplicating it... I added credit to you in the beginning of the file (was kinda fun setting it up.. I've never used absolute $ cell references and conditional shading before)

hey Horist, thanks for a sticky!
and no, of course i don't mind, and thanks for giving credit where credit's due.
if you want more excel tricks, look at the MAF calibration spreadsheet, that has some rather advanced concepts like array formulas.
where in IL are you? I don't know anyone local that tunes stuff, i'd love to buy you a beer and pick your brain.
PM me if you're intersted.

I'm up a bit north of you near Wauconda/Lake Zurich area
as for the 1200 constant... did a quick search and Paul@EfiLive explained in the past

rpms (revs per millisecond) = rpm/60000
maxpw (maximum injector pulse width) = 2/rpms (2 revolutions to complete 4 stroke cycle)
injdc (injector duty cycle) = injpw*100/maxpw
so...
injdc
= (injpw*100)/(2/(rpm/60000))
= (injpw*100)/(120000/rpm)
= injpw*rpm/1200
That's where the 1200 comes from
maxpw (maximum injector pulse width) = 2/rpms (2 revolutions to complete 4 stroke cycle)
injdc (injector duty cycle) = injpw*100/maxpw
so...
injdc
= (injpw*100)/(2/(rpm/60000))
= (injpw*100)/(120000/rpm)
= injpw*rpm/1200
That's where the 1200 comes from

6000 RPM = 100 revolutions per second
1 revolution = .01 seconds (or 10ms)
2 revolutions = .02 seconds (complete 4 stroke)
How long is the intake valve open? If the injector is spraying for 15ms, doesn't it have to be spraying while the valve is closed?

some more poking at injector duty cycle, but this time it's used for getting your volumetric efficiency too

I have the lookup tables, but I'd like it calculatable so I can graph some things against each other.
thanks

Here's another method:
Inj PW/ [{1/RPM}*120]=Inj Duty %
Great graphs by the way guys....
There are lots of ways to get there....just depends which road you like! LOL
