Looks like the old gm one maxes out at 163*, that’d explain the flat line then the sudden drop to 125*. Much more reliable data! Nice tip!

How are you measuring accuracy though...certainly response time isn't your only metric. There are far more complicated dynamics at play when it comes to determining actual charge temperature. Unless you calibrated for the new first order lag dynamics of the IAT/ECT combination with the downstream thermal mass of the system, you probably found your mixture going lean with the new sensor.
@turbochevelle5641
@turbochevelle5641 3 жыл бұрын
I don't think its response time they are seeing. If you notice the length of the Rife sensor is much longer so it is reading closer to the center of flow where air moves quicker and thays why he is seeing a different temp. Ideally you want you open element in the center of flow because it moves fastest in the center. Guarentee that if he had another sensor that was dead center of flow it would read even higher. Thays why in the temp sensor industry it is important to spec sensors to center of flow for most accurate measurements.
@anasasisxenophontis
@anasasisxenophontis 3 жыл бұрын
@@turbochevelle5641 the center of flow isolates the measurement from thermal mass that can affect it. It's not a temperature gradient along the radius of the tube the air flows through...it's just the heatsink that the sensor is mounted in. That affects the time constant of the system. I designed software for GM....the code is littered with first order lag filters to compensate for situations like this.

Actually its not that the sensor is slow. These sensors are exposed element type k thermocouples. If you look at the sensors the exposed element of the gm sensor is much shorter and by the time it is screwed into the bung it's barely into the charge pipe, where the Rife sensor was much longer so that's where the difference is coming from. Air moves quickest through the center of the charge pipe so the closer to the center the reading is the more accurate reading of excursion temps you will see. So basically what you are seeing is the difference between the depths the temp elements are reading and the closer to center you get the higher reading you will see.

I'm not disagreeing that it wouldn't be good for the "sensor TIP to be up inside the bung" but have you done back to back testing (with data) showing the GM works "as fast as the RIFE"? Or are you _just saying_ RIFE's web site is showing incorrect/false info? ("ultra-fast response thermistors")...

I would love a test in more controlled setting and see if it’s the same calibration. I only say this is because I had some issues with my ssi sensors and it was the offset calibration and was a pain but worked it out. Thanks love the channel

Temp sensors are pretty slow relatively speaking. I would saw In your log where ever the ramp Yo for the temp starts is probably more in line with where your boost ramp started to come in. Even if the temp sensor is a little bit behind as far as time. Temp should rise generally with the increase in pressure. Sweet product. There are some pretty gnarly temp sensors out there. Some are silly prices. But they have a place and I am glad they’re a choice. Anyways. America 1

Other than the older videos of LM7 and LS1 packs.. my stock LS6 still has stock coils with no heat sinks and my truck has LM7s and about to just swap them out but they’ve got some mileage on them. Why buy new(er) if I don’t have to. Theory was the stock LS1/6 packs would miss faster than the PCM can pick up on, and there for having a bad time when you’re racing at 7000rpm+.

Just a veiled attempt to push more products to people who don't know any better.

Not the way to do it. They are type k exposed element thermocouples. The way flow is properly measured is directly in the center of flow because that's where velocity is fastest and heat will be more concentrated. The gm sensor is much shorter that's why its reading is different and if they had a sensor dead center of flow it would read higher than the Rife. These guys have no idea obviously that there is no way to read real time temp and understanding excursion temps is a must along with placement of the element in the flow path. Sounds good what they are saying but they are missing the engineering principal behind why and where to take measurement for most accurate readings.
