The effect of changes in compression ratio upon engine performance (1925)
NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) · leaf 13
1. A ratio of to less than 1 might occur if the intake gases exerted a considerable ramming action and would be very apt to occur when using a meclianically driven supercharger. As far as the theoretical engine cycle is concerned the exhaust temperature is higher the T lower the compression ratio.… … manifold. In other words this b one tendency toward a decrease in volumetric efficiency with an increase in compression ratio. The gist of the foregoing is that^experiments to date have shown no major difi'erence in volumetric efficiency to result from changes in compression ratio and that…
