  2. Octane rating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octane_rating

    An octane rating, or octane number, is a standard measure of a fuel's ability to withstand compression in an internal combustion engine without causing engine knocking.The higher the octane number, the more compression the fuel can withstand before detonating.

  3. Stratified charge engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratified_charge_engine

    A higher mechanical compression ratio, or dynamic compression ratio with forced induction, can be used to improve thermodynamic efficiency. Because fuel is not injected into the combustion chamber until just before the combustion is required to begin, there is little risk of pre-ignition or engine knock.

  4. Compression ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_ratio

    For example, if the static compression ratio is 10:1, and the dynamic compression ratio is 7.5:1, a useful value for cylinder pressure would be 7.5 1.3 × atmospheric pressure, or 13.7 bar (relative to atmospheric pressure). The two corrections for dynamic compression ratio affect cylinder pressure in opposite directions, but not in equal strength.

  5. Chevrolet big-block engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_big-block_engine

    The addition of two milled cutouts [in the head] to extend the volume of the combustion wedge can create a compression ratio of 7.5:1; one milled cutout produces a 9.5:1 compression ratio. The difference between the volume of these cutouts provides a wide compression range without making any changes in the piston or cylinder head.

  6. Nissan MR engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_MR_engine

    Bore and stroke is 79.7 mm × 90.1 mm (3.14 in × 3.55 in). It produces 165–221 kW; 222–296 hp (225–300 PS) at 6000 rpm and 300–420 N⋅m (221–310 lb⋅ft) at 3600 rpm, and has a compression ratio of 9.0:1. It is used in the Renault and Alpine vehicles since 2015, where it is named M5Pt. Applications:

  7. Toyota GR engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_GR_engine

    The Toyota GR engine family is a gasoline, open-deck, piston V6 engine series. The GR series has a 60° die-cast aluminium block and aluminium DOHC cylinder heads.This engine series also features 4 valves per cylinder, forged steel connecting rods and crankshaft, one-piece cast camshafts, a timing chain, [1] and a cast aluminium lower intake manifold.

  8. List of Volkswagen Group petrol engines - Wikipedia

    The EA211 engines are a completely new four-cylinder turbocharged and direct-injection TSI engines. Compared to its predecessor, the EA211 series is significantly more compact, with installation length 50 mm (2.0 in) shorter, thus offering more interior space.

  9. Homogeneous charge compression ignition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneous_charge...

    THE COMPRESSION RATIO IS WRONG. IN WIKIPEDIA IT LISTS THE 4 RATIOS. THE MAXIMUM IS 14.5 TO 1. Mazda's Skyactiv-G Generation 2 has a compression ratio of 18:1 to allow the use of HCCI combustion. [39] An engine model called Skyactiv#Skyactiv-X has been announced by Mazda in August 2017 as a major breakthrough in engine technology. [40]
