Compression Ratio Tech - The Power Squeeze
Figure 1This chart shows the difference in the way the pressure decays in a high-compression cylinder versus a low-compression one. Here we have fixed the starting pressure for both examples at 1,000 psi to make the comparison easier. In practice the 15:1 cylinder would have a peak pressure of over 1,500 psi versus about 200 for the low-compression one. View Related Article
