Answer:
10.007
Explanation:
Assuming we have to find out the compression ratio of the engine
Given information
Cubic capacity of the engine, V = 245 cc
Clearance volume, V_c = 27.2 cc
over square-ratio = 1.1
thus,
D/L = 1.1
where,
D is the bore
L is the stroke
Now,
Volume of the engine V =[tex]\frac{\pi}{4} D^2L[/tex]
plugging values we get
245 = [tex]\frac{\pi}{4} D^3/1.1[/tex]
Solving we get D =7 cm
therefore, L= 7/1.1 =6.36 cm
Now,
the compression ratio is given as:
r =(V+V_c)/V_c
on substituting the values, we get
r = (245+27.2)/27.2 =10.007
Hence, Compression ratio = 10.007
