I would like to be as accurate as possible within reason (does that actually help?) I am trying to find any forces that might limit the capabilities of the parts or the engine as a whole. Mostly I am hoping i can get reasonable estimates of limiting factors like maximum RPM, and cylinder...

Thanks that isn't quite what i was going for, its actually much better. At the bottom of that thread is exactly the kind of detail I am looking to do, but it has no figures with the graphs. I would imagine the gas pressure force would hold approximately the same shape but change in magnitude...

Hello this is my first post on the forum, i have very little knowledge in physics and high level mathematics, but for the past few years I've been dabbling with excel on a way to compare and give rough estimates of many facets of engines. At the moment what I am working on is determining the...
