Why Is Volumetric Efficiency Less Than 100? If the cylinder is filled with fuel/air at atmospheric pressure, then the engine is said to have 100% volumetric efficiency. … However, if the cylinder is pulling in a vacuum, then the engine has less than 100% volumetric efficiency. What are the causes of less that 100% volumetric

Why Is The Clearance Volume Important?

Why Is The Clearance Volume Important? Clearance volume or bumping clearance is the space between the top of the piston and the cylinder head of an air compressor. This clearance is an important aspect of the compressors and should be as less as practically possible to improve the volumetric efficiency of the compressor. What is
