Summary of change:
'''Subpage of GenBoard/UnderDevelopment/FirmWare related to coolant temp''' The temperature range was traditionally -40 .. 215F (internally and in config 0..255) inherited from the procariotic ECM (megasquirt); This is a problem, because it rails when you are most interested in the temp (101..110C remember the coolant is usually pressurizable to 60..200kPa above athmosphere). Also, aircooled engines like higher head-temp. '''Proposed range: celsius based, starting at -50C''' * internal values 1..210 for -49 .. 160C (0 and engine.clt >210 values reserved for error conditions and future whatever) '''Checklist to achieve this''' * thermfactor.c (thermfactor.inc): remap. This is very simple, apply linear transformation and 255 (215F = 101C) will become 151 => not rail ! * with the above simple change, we have the extended range for coolant. To match the new range, all coolant related variables must be updated (with simple conversion) in any config to match the new range. Maybe a name change is appropriate, so ''make mtt'' warns about the fact that using old-scale values: ** warmup_clt_range[] ... this might go to flash, since noone ever tweakes them. Maybe the highest bin should be 80C or 75C instead of 71C ? ** fan_temp ** fan_hyst ** ego_coolant ** ve_learn_coolant ** some compile time constants ** ... ? * fix LCD functions that display temp * fix MegaTune formulas for temp display * fix MegaTune formulas for the relevant config variables
Optional: Add document to category:
Wiki formatting: * is Bullet list ** Bullet list subentry ... '''Bold''', ---- is horizontal ruler, <code> preformatted text... </code> See wiki editing HELP for tables and other formatting tips and tricks.
