the ratio of the amount (mass) of air to fuel. Ideal is 14.7 lbs of air to 1 lb of fuel to completely burn air the fuel. A slightly rich raitio of about 12.5:1 car produce more power at the expense of emissions.

How is fuel air ratio calculated?

The fuel-air ratio (F/A ratio) is calculated by dividing the mass of fuel by the mass of air in a combustion process. It can be expressed as F/A = (mass of fuel) / (mass of air). To determine this ratio, you can use the specific fuel's energy content and the stoichiometric coefficients for the combustion reaction. This ratio is crucial for optimizing combustion efficiency and reducing emissions in engines and burners.

What is fuel air ratio?

Air to fuel ratio is the ratio between the weight of air to the weight of fuel, for example: 14.7 pounds of air to 1 pound of fuel would be a air:fuel ratio of 14.7:1 This particular example is called the stoichiometric ratio for gasoline...it's ideal ratio in order to efficiently use all the fuel. This ratio varies for different fuels....for example, ethanol fuels have a stoichiometric air:fuel ratio of 13.85:1. In actuality, a gasoline car gets it's best fuel mileage when the fuel is reduced slightly and produces it's best power when the ratio is a little heavier on the fuel side.
