Best Answer

VE is a measure of cylinder filling and exhausting to show potential increase or decreased horsepower. Higher VE increases horsepower. VE changes through the rpm range and for racing applications is optimized for the upper rpm range with a sacrifice of VE in the lower rpm range. Things like camshafts and rocker arms, intake ports and length, carburetors, combustion chamber type, valves position and size, exhaust ports and length, header size and length all effect VE.

What are the causes of reduced volumetric efficiency?

Reduction in power density. Power density is the power produced by the engine per volume unit. Reduced volumetric efficiency means that less air/fuel will be delivered to the engine for a specific engine volume.


What is the advantage of using variable length inlet manifolds?

Maximizes torque/power out of the engine by increasing cylinder filling (volumetric efficiency).


What is the ratio between brake horse power and energy supplied?

Brake Thermal efficiency !!


Will the improvement of power factor will increase the efficiency?

Efficiency is defined as the ratio between the output power and the input power of a machine, expressed as a per unit or percentage. Power factor improvement has absolutely no effect on the behaviour of a load. All it does is to reduce the magnitude of the load current. A reduction in load current means that less copper can be used in the supply of energy to the load. However, it doesn't effect either the output or input power of the load. So the answer is no, power factor has no effect on the efficiency of a load. You could argue, however, that if improving the power factor of a load reduces the supply current, leading to lower line losses, then there is an improvement in the efficiency of the supply system.
