Title: Calculate HP with LogFile
Post by: unicornux on May 08, 2020, 03:49:22 AM
Hi guys.
how i can calculate hp with my log file. actually what is hp formula and which parameter needs to calculate hp?
thanks :)

I'm not an expert, but calculating HP is just a sum of torque and RPM. I think you calculate HP at the crank with this formula, but correct me if i'm wrong. If you are interested in the logic behind is i suggest you to just google, plenty of good articles explaining it more in depth.

Formula:
HP = Torque x RPM ÷ 5252

thanks. but i must calculate Torque in this way.
i want calculate with car log file.

Download ecuxplot, open your file...
Assuming you have correct values loaded and set to log.... enter weight of your car, and calculate the rpm/mph factor using a gear ratio calculator.

Will need your tire radius, final drive, gear ratio for the gear that you are in.
Log must be of a good pull.

The correctness of these numbers is paramount to accuracy.

so, the ecuxplot calculate hp with only rpm and weight and tire radius? no more needed?

thanks.
what about drivetrain?
can you explain me about it? how i can compute drivetrain(driveloss)?

You don't. It's a guess. In any case, nobody cares about that, wheel hp is all that matters anyway.

ommm. so, but you assume this value is 25 in ECUxplot. why? no matter?

and also according to the your code on github it's seems you calculate HP as follow:
whp = g * speed * mass
hp = whp / driveloss
 ??? ??? ???
is this correct?
