What is the displacement of a 1.998L engine?
1 Answers
An engine displacement of 1.998L is essentially a 2-liter displacement. Introduction to Engine Displacement: Engine displacement, a specialized term in hydraulic transmission, refers to the volume of fluid inhaled or discharged per stroke or cycle. Generally, a larger displacement means the engine can release more energy (converting chemical energy from fuel into mechanical energy) per unit time. Vehicles like off-roaders and sports cars typically have relatively larger displacements. Working Principle of Engine Displacement: The working principle of engine displacement involves the working volume swept by the piston moving from top dead center to bottom dead center. If an engine has multiple cylinders, the sum of all cylinders' working volumes is called the engine displacement, usually expressed in liters. Engine displacement is one of the most important structural parameters, more representative of engine size than bore diameter and cylinder count. Many engine performance metrics are closely related to displacement.
