  2. Draft (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_(engineering)

    A cylinder with longitudinal draft Profile view of a drafted cylinder with the draft dimension. In engineering, draft is the amount of taper for molded or cast parts perpendicular to the parting line. It can be measured in degrees or mm/mm (in/in). Consider the fabrication of a hollow plastic box, without lid.

  3. Compression ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_ratio

    Regardless, the dynamic compression ratio is always lower than the static compression ratio. Absolute cylinder pressure is used to calculate the dynamic compression ratio, using the following formula: = where is a polytropic value for the ratio of specific heats for the combustion gases at the temperatures present (this compensates for the ...

  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. 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 ...

  6. Dead centre (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_centre_(engineering)

    In a multi-cylinder engine, pistons may reach top dead centre simultaneously or at different times depending on the engine configuration. For example: In the V-twin configuration, the two pistons reach TDC at different times, equal to the angular displacement between the cylinders.
