Method Detail

idleFraction

float idleFraction()

Determine the idle speed as a fraction of the redline.

Returns:

the fraction (≥0)

idleRpm

float idleRpm()

Determine the idle speed of the Engine.

Returns:

the crankshaft rotation rate (in revolutions per minute, ≥0, ≤redlineRpm)

redlineRpm

float redlineRpm()

Determine the redline speed of the Engine.

Returns:

the crankshaft rotation rate (in revolutions per minute, >0, ≥idleRpm)

rpm

float rpm()

Determine the current engine speed.

Returns:

the crankshaft rotation rate (in revolutions per minute, ≥0)

rpmFraction

float rpmFraction()

Determine the current engine speed as a fraction of the redline.

Returns:

the fraction (≥0, ≤1)
