Send an email
An email service is inbuilt. After initial setting up it allows for quick emailing, this was primarily designed for the sending
files required for diagnostics, sending tech enquiries, providing feedback and suggestions to DTec.
Lambda AFR Converter
A Converter tool that allows you to change Lambda to Air/Fuel ratio (AFR) and visa versa.
To deal with AFR units then the fuel being used stoichiometry ratio must be known (ratio for chemically complete
combustion). If you work in Lambda units then the actual fuel used is irrelevant e.g. Lambda 1 is Lambda 1 with any fuel!
This is because Lambda is simply an indicator of how far you are from ideal (0.9 = 10% rich, 1.1 = 10% lean)
We have already entered the value for most common fuels. You can enter your own value if you are using a blended fuel
and then save this for use in DYNertia3 later (e.g. in the ‘Lambda/AFR deviation’ analyser Window).
Once the fuel has been selected then you can manually enter a Lambda value and the equivalent AFR will be displayed.
Tables of the conversions are also shown for quick reference.
