What Is Swept Volume As Applied To A Piston Stroke? Definition. Swept volume is the displacement of one cylinder. It is the volume between top dead center (TDC) and bottom dead center (BDC). As the piston travels from top to bottom, it “sweeps” its total volume. This measurement can be listed in cubic inches or

When Would You Use The Water Displacement Method? Students use the water displacement method to find the volume of different rods that all have the same mass. They calculate the density of each rod, and use the characteristic density of each material to identify all five rods. Why do we use displacement method to measure
