Compression?
#4
RE: Compression?
this is the formula for calculating the compression ratio from the NHRA rulebook.
compression ratio =
combustion chamber cc's + gasket cc's + deck CI cc's + (displacement x 2.0483*)
combustion chamber cc's + gasket cc's + deck CI cc's
*2.0483 for 8 cyl 2.7311 for 6 cyl 4.0967 for 4 cyl
and where displacement = bore x bore x stroke x 0.7854 x number of cylinders
and deck clearance volume cc's = bore x bore x 12.87 x depth of deck clearance
and gasket volume cc's = bore x bore x 12.87 x compressed thickness of head gasket
compression ratio =
combustion chamber cc's + gasket cc's + deck CI cc's + (displacement x 2.0483*)
combustion chamber cc's + gasket cc's + deck CI cc's
*2.0483 for 8 cyl 2.7311 for 6 cyl 4.0967 for 4 cyl
and where displacement = bore x bore x stroke x 0.7854 x number of cylinders
and deck clearance volume cc's = bore x bore x 12.87 x depth of deck clearance
and gasket volume cc's = bore x bore x 12.87 x compressed thickness of head gasket
