#lambda

Air-fuel ratio and lambda maths for engine tuning as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the lambda, AFR and mixture numbers a tuner, ECU developer or motorsport engineer dials fuelling in with. The lambda endpoint turns a measured air-fuel ratio into lambda (the AFR divided by the fuel's stoichiometric AFR — 14.7 for gasoline) and the equivalence ratio φ = 1/lambda, classifying the mix as rich, stoichiometric or lean: a gasoline AFR of 13.0 is lambda 0.88, an 11.6 % rich mixture, the sort used at wide-open throttle for power and a cooler, safer burn. The afr endpoint runs it the other way — pick a target lambda and it gives the AFR the wideband should read — and because the AFR number is fuel-specific (E85's stoichiometric AFR is about 9.8, not 14.7) it always works from the right fuel, which is why pros tune in lambda when switching fuels. The mixture endpoint links the air the engine breathes to the fuel the injectors must add: give an air mass and a target lambda and it returns the fuel mass (or vice-versa), the heart of how an ECU sizes fuelling from measured airflow. Built-in stoichiometric ratios for gasoline, E10, E85, ethanol, methanol, diesel, LPG, propane, methane/CNG and hydrogen, or pass your own. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for engine-tuning and dyno tools, ECU and standalone-management apps, motorsport and data-logging utilities. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. 3 compute endpoints. For engine displacement and power use an engine API; for chemical reaction stoichiometry a stoichiometry API.
