I'm sure there is, but if I'm being honest, I have no idea. I've always done it based on feel. For instance this is what my set looked like today 185 X 8, 1 minute rest, 200 x 5 1:30 rest, 215 x 3 2 minute rest, 225 x 1. I always do an 8-5-3 set, then one max rep at the end. Keep in mind I always try to get them all in the one set, if I go 8/8, then 4/5 then 3/3, then I'll keep that weight the same until I actually get them all, like I did today.

So based on my anecdotal evidence, I can 2 to 3 extra reps on every 15 to 20 pounds. You can try that as a reference.
