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?

| 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.

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.

| 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.

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

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

| 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.
