Cranking the compression up to 20 kilos (285 PSI) - what for?

[@Rob_Fe]

Wonder if they’ll try running it on diesel, should easily run with that compression

[@detaart]

They would need to modify the head to fit diesel injectors, somehow fit a pump, and then the rods would probably just bend.

Ethanol or methanol mixtures of high octane petrol or something like that. Maybe pure petrol. LPG is an option.

[@jamest.5001]

The oil tings is designed to hold oil to evenly lube the cylinder, and remove excess, the lower ring is to scrape oil from the wall, keeping it out of the combustion chamber, the reason the more rings raised compression, is because the rings are higher on the piston.. you could simply add a ring land at the top of the piston, and move the existing rings up, more rings only rob power, more friction! And it takes time to seat the rings to get a good deal!

WTF!!! 20:1 From a Lada engine that's insane congratulations to the team there! 😃that means, they achieved better compression ratio even from the modern (skyactiv) combustion engines of Mazda. Well done guys there! I appreciate your simple and the hardworking way that you all devoted to your projects. Thumbs up from me Garage54!

[@paviaaPS3]

No my man, you mixed all up and is confusing all the terms! 20:1 is simply a ratio of how many times the compression volume can be inside the cylinder volume(stroke volume + compression volume). It has nothing to do with pressure! But you can say that in order for a diesel engine to run properly, you need at least 18:1 or more than that. Mazda has achieved 14:1 in their diesel engine, but has a hard time to start in winter due to low pressure and therefor low heat. But they managed to sort that out using exhaust and glow plugs. The reason they did the low compression ratio was because it produces less NOx and particulates! The new skyactiv x that runs on gas, has a compression ratio of 16:1. What the actual compression pressure is, I don’t know, but could be in the region of 15-20 bar of pressure. For diesel engines the compression pressure must be between 30 to 50 bar in order for the finely misted diesel fuel to ignite

There is a certain pressure threshold before it will behave like a diesel engine. A diesel engine has pressure of 300 - 500 psi. And that engine is producing compression similar to low end of diesel compression.

I been asking for this for 2 years! Finally you're finally doing this..

[@watahyahknow]

using more rings will increase the drag robbing power

[@sethbarnes7608]

The best way to increase dynamic compression is camshaft timing. Advance the cam a bit. Maybe 4 degrees or so, and you'll get more low end grunt. Also, good cylinder head port, and seat work will help. Try a 5 angle valve job, and cut the intake valves and seats to 30 degrees. This will present more open area at the valve curtain at lower lifts, and will enhance low lift flow, improves cylinder scavenging, and will build low end torque

@@TurboVisBits Well, technically you're pumping air with an engine, which is a fluid but not liquid. And you're not trying to compress liquid on any refrigeration system, just the low temp/low pressure gas into high temp/pressure gas into the condensing coil. But even so, this wouldn't work as there's too much leakage everywhere and you'd just keep loosing refrigerant. Cars still use piston based compressors, and there are piston based compressors for HVAC, however they've fallen way out of favor for scroll and centrifugal the last 20 years.

[@dimitar4y]

The main issue I imagine is the total combustion pressure is relative to normal atmospheric pressure, there's probably some sort of a curve that shows the inefficiencies of too-high compression where at some point you're using all the combustion energy just to compress the next shot, and no useful energy comes out of the crankshaft.

[@Chris_Garman]

That's nearly impossible. What do you think the actual pressure of the explosion is?

[@dimitar4y]

@@Chris_Garman you don't know how physics work do you. Good luck magically harnessing all the kinetic energy from a tiny explosion in a tiny chamber where you nearly have no control over combustion timing, and then having it somehow flywheel into another compression.

Maybe it would be wise to back the timing right down on this thing and run 50% gasoline and 50% diesel to begin with. I wonder if the connecting rods are going to hold up.

Not sure if the connecting rods will be able to survive the extra compression, I have a feeling a piston and/or rod is eventually going to break. Also you must have an oil ring on the pistons, premature wear on the rings and cylinder walls will happen and also more friction and heat will be generated, basically the engine won't last, could even seize.
