Exhaust Scavenging Calculator — Optimize Your Exhaust System

Exhaust Scavenging Calculator

Calculate exhaust scavenging efficiency and optimize your vehicle’s exhaust system. Understand how pipe diameter, length, and engine specs affect performance.

Step 1: Engine Details

RPM

Understanding Exhaust Scavenging

Exhaust scavenging uses pressure waves to help pull exhaust gases from cylinders, improving engine efficiency. Properly tuned exhaust systems can increase power and torque across the RPM range.

Step 2: Exhaust System

About Pipe Dimensions

Primary pipe diameter and length are critical for tuning exhaust scavenging. Smaller diameters increase gas velocity but may restrict flow at high RPM. Longer pipes typically improve low-RPM torque.

Scavenging Efficiency Analysis

Exhaust Scavenging Formula

Efficiency ∝ (Velocity × Pipe Length) / (Displacement × RPM)

Scavenging efficiency is calculated based on exhaust gas velocity, pipe dimensions, and engine characteristics. Optimal systems create negative pressure waves that help extract exhaust gases during valve overlap.
