COMPRESSION RATIO ❑ An engine's compression ratio is defined as the ratio of cylinder volume with the piston at the bottom of its stroke to the volume with the piston at the top of its stroke. ❑ For example, if there are 140 cubic inches of space in a cylinder when the piston is at bottom center and 20 cubic inches of space whenthe piston isat top center, the compression ratio is 140 to 20 ❑ As a general rule, thehigher the compression ratio,the greater an engine's power output. #aircraft #aviation #aviationgeek #aviationdaily #aviationknowledge #SasidharanMurugan #Itzmemsd

In aerospace, a higher compression ratio boosts engine efficiency, thrust, and fuel economy, essential for long flights and high-altitude performance. However, it must be balanced to avoid overheating and material stress.
