This engine has a transparent cylinder so that combustion can be observed. Two components of cylinder volume are important: (a) The "Displacement volume" is the volume displaced by the piston as it ...

The volume of any cylinder is the area of the cross-section multiplied by its height. This is given by the formula \(V\) = π\(r\)²\(h\) , where \(r\) is the radius of the circular cross-section ...
