Have a good read and understand the concept firstigiigi wrote:ok, if build a Hybrid Cannon with small chamber, i put some gas in and I need put air in right? without air it doesn´t works (becoase the chamber is to small)?
hmm can I put air with a bicycle pump in? and gas with tank injection?
if jes, how should the ratio of air/gas be?
Fittingproblem!!

Ordinary combustion cannons use a mixture of air and fuel at atmospheric pressure. For a typical fuel like butane or propane the ratio is about 4% fuel, for example 4mL of Propane in a 100mL chamber.
In a hybrid, the mixture is under pressure, and for every bar of pressure you add, you have to add one volume of fuel.
For example in a 100mL chamber pressurised to 3 bar (45 psi), you have to add 16mL of fuel.

It doesn't matter as long as you have pressure
