The pressure inside a closed cylinder when engine cranking varis based on engine starter motor speed. The manufacturer designs the engine with what is known as the compression ratio, this means the piston sweeps the volume of the cylinder compressing the air and fuel as it reaches top dead centre. The amount of pressure in a cylinder is not that important provided all cylinders are even, and the cylinder leakage is not excessive. Each manufacturer will have their own specifications for each engine they design.

What does incomplete combustion do to the engine of a car?
Incomplete combustion in an engine indicates that all of the fuel has not been burnt. Incomplete combustion can cause clogging and damage to the valves in the engine of a car.
What is the functioning of Internal combustion engine?
pretty much to put it simply, the purpose of the internal combustion engine is to turn potential energy in the form of petrol or diesel into mechanical energy. This is done by exploding the fuel in the combustion chamber of the engine, therefore creating heat and rapid expension of gas which drives the whole car. if you want more info just look it up on the wikipedia site, it's pretty handy and well written.
What is the energy conversion in car engine?
Chemical (gas) to thermal (combustion) to mechanical More Simply: Chemical Energy to Mechanical Energy
What is the peak temperature in a combustion chamber of a car engine?
Temps can be close to 3600 deg f away from surfaces. Surfaces however are kept cool by the engines cooling system and the fact that the burning mostly takes place in only 1 of the four strokes. Exhaust manifolds can reach temps of over 1800 deg. f
How did Henry Ford's first engine work?
it is a four cycle internal combustion engine so it has the same parts as a modern car engine. intake valve,exhaust valve, ignition system, cam shaft, cylinder, piston, crankshaft, connecting rod. These parts are not exactly the same as a modern auto engine but still accomplish the same things.
Can a car engine exceed 500 degrees?
No. Car engines are cooled by water (under pressure), so they run at or aground 100 degrees Celsius. Of cause in the combustion chamber and at the exhaust temperatures are much higher.
How do you stop oil burning?
your car has oil burning in the combustion chamber of your engine , need to rectify the engine block and replace piston rings
When I am cruising down the road not pressing my gas I notice that my car is losing it's power then you press on the gas and then it seems like your car is getting the power back why is this?
Pressing on the gas pedal sends more gas to the combustion chamber for the combustion process which sends more pressure to the engine for your car to pick up speed.
Why does your car backfire while driving it?
Backfire is an explosion produced by a running internal combustion engine that occurs in the intake or exhaust system rather than inside the combustion chamber,
Why did the sleeve valve engine disapere from car engines?
To increase compression. Sleeve valves take a lot of combustion chamber space.
Can fuel stabilizer cause smoke from tailpipe its white didnt notice it before?
No. White smoke is a symptom of coolant entering the combustion chamber. Stop driving the car and have it looked at by a professional. Serious engine damage will occur if it is indeed coolant in the combustion chamber and you continue to run the engine.
What is the function of the engine block in car?
The engine block keeps combustion controlled in the chamber instead of exploding the engine apart. It also helps with cooling and provides a platform for your other engine parts.
What do engineers use to help reduce friction in the operation of a car?
organize you combustion chamber with carbohydrate rods and put friction pumps in the engine
How do you make a car on alchemy for ipod?
cart + combustion engine = car steam engine + gasoline = combustion engine boiler + coal = steam engine
What does incomplete combustion do to the engine of a car?
Incomplete combustion in an engine indicates that all of the fuel has not been burnt. Incomplete combustion can cause clogging and damage to the valves in the engine of a car.
Gasoline is burned in the combustion chamber of a car the reaction rate is what?
decrease
Can a car burn oil on the inside of the motor?
Yes, in the combustion chamber.
