  2. 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.

  3. Variable compression ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_compression_ratio

    The Peugeot design works by varying the effective length of the con-rods connecting the piston to the crank. When the con-rod is shorter, the compression ratio is lower and vice versa. On the left hand-side of the diagram is the conventional piston of an internal combustion engine. On the right is an hydraulic cylinder with double-acting piston.

  4. Engine displacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_displacement

    The overall displacement for a typical reciprocating piston engine is calculated by multiplying together three values; the distance travelled by the piston (the stroke length), the circular area of the cylinder, and the number of cylinders in the whole engine. [2] The formula is:

  5. Otto cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_cycle

    The volume ratio / is called the "isentropic expansion ratio". (For the Otto cycle is the same as the compression ratio V 1 / V 2 {\displaystyle V_{1}/V_{2}} ). Mechanically this is the expansion of the hot gaseous mixture in the cylinder known as expansion (power) stroke.

  6. Rolling-element bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling-element_bearing

    A sealed deep groove ball bearing. In mechanical engineering, a rolling-element bearing, also known as a rolling bearing, [1] is a bearing which carries a load by placing rolling elements (such as balls, cylinders, or cones) between two concentric, grooved rings called races.

  7. Piston motion equations - Wikipedia

    Clearly, in this example, the angle between the crank and the rod is not a right angle. Summing the angles of the triangle 88.21738° + 18.60647° + 73.17615° gives 180.00000°. A single counter-example is sufficient to disprove the statement "velocity maxima/minima occur when crank makes a right angle with rod".

  9. Girard form class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girard_form_class

    Girard form class is a form quotient calculated as the ratio of diameter inside bark at the top of the first 16 foot log to the diameter outside bark at breast height ().Its purpose is to estimate board-foot volume of whole trees from measurement of DBH, estimation of the number of logs, and estimation of the taper of the first log, based on the general relationships identified between the ...
