  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.

  4. Spring (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_(device)

    Springs can be classified depending on how the load force is applied to them: Tension/extension spring The spring is designed to operate with a tension load, so the spring stretches as the load is applied to it. Compression spring Designed to operate with a compression load, so the spring gets shorter as the load is applied to it. Torsion spring

  5. Coil spring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coil_spring

    Coil springs have many applications; notable ones include: Buckling springs in computer keyboards; Mattress coils in innerspring mattresses; Upholstery coil springs in upholstery; Coil springs are commonly used in vehicle suspension. These springs are compression springs and can differ greatly in strength and in size depending on application.

    The thermodynamics of the idealized Carnot heat engine tells us that an ICE is most efficient if most of the burning takes place at a high temperature, resulting from compression — near top dead center. The speed of the flame front is directly affected by the compression ratio, fuel mixture temperature, and octane rating or cetane number of

  7. Arc spring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_spring

    The arc spring (also known as - bow spring, curved spring, circular spring or "banana" spring) is a special form of coil spring which was originally developed for use in the dual-mass flywheel of internal combustion engine drive trains. The term "arc spring" is used to describe pre-curved or arc-shaped helical compression springs.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Compression_ratio

    Compression ratio is the cause of the compression, pressure ratio is the result of this compression and increase in pressure. Compression ratio can be calculated easily from the engine's geometry. Pressure ratio is measured.

  9. Compressor map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_map

    A link between a gas turbine compressor and its engine can be shown with lines of constant engine temperature ratio, ie the effect of fuelling/increased turbine temperature which raises the running line as the temperature ratio increases. One manifestation of different behaviour appears in the choke region on the right-hand side of a map.
