I like a compromise of displacement and RPM. Peak HP at 7000-8000rpm gives a sense of occasion and a reason to rev it out, but I also want enough torque to feel powerful at any RPM. And I don't want ANY throttle or turbo lag.

The way the Viper is 8.4L and the Koenigsegg TFG is 2L, and they both make about the same power is actually so insane.

Interesting example for the differences between displacement, forced induction and fuel efficiency: when AMG changed from the 6.2L NA V8 to the 4L Biturbo, the smaller engine with the whole turbo, intercooler stuff was heavier than the 6.2. It had more power and torque, and due to cylinder deactivation and smaller displacement did use a little less fuel in low load scenarios. When the power was used, it didn't consume less fuel than the big V8. ti was right up there with it. Another funny comparisson: i remember reading car tests of a sporty car magazine years ago. (It wasn't a direct comparisson, but they tested each car the same way) They really used the power the cars offered on tracks and in testing. The Mitubishi Lancer Evo (don't remember which # though) with it's 2L Turbo engine had the same fuel consumption than an E63AMG with the 6.2L V8. So with a relly heavy right foot, both take the same amount of fuel even though one car was significantly smaller, lighter and had a smaller engine. But why was that? Because the Evo used additional fuel to cool down the air fuel mixture to prevent problems. (i think EE has a video on why some engine need that and what it preents-> needs more fuel, and makes for a dirtier combustion. (soot around the exhaust)

The W204 is down to 25mpg, but at least it sounds good. The correct answer for what is best is a V8.

Simple. Stay in school

You remind me of an old story. A famous motorcycle racer was talking to the tuner at the end of the season. "I barely held off the completion on the last couple of races. I must have more power next year, so how are you going to do that? Answer was Very simple Kenny-san, want more power - burn more gasoline!" Which is the reverse side of your description, and funny to boot.

I love the new white board. Great examples.

What I learned from this video is that the ability for an engine to make power and how immediately it can make power is dance between the rate it processes air, how much air is processed per cycle, and how compressed that cycle of air is when ignited. Based off the nature of how ICE engines are used in cars it makes sense that turbos have taken over in road cars, since the wide range of speeds they operate encourage a broad torque curve thats less easily achievable with high displacement engines. In a similar sense, that reveals why aviation engines are often so massive in displacement. The amount processes per cycle at a constant low rpm is whats king in making a propeller aircraft perform at modest altitudes (turbos find introduction the higher you go) And of course high rpm engines as key techniques make the most sense in motorsport and enthusiast cars because of the ease engine rpm can be transmitted into wheel rpm, and thus high speed performance, the same range of drivability not being needed in as wide an rpm range.

@cleveland2286

2 ай бұрын

Aviation engines are similar to boat engines in that the reason you want large displacement is for reliability -- not necessarily for performance. Car engines can make really high peak power numbers, but absolutely not for seconds to minutes to hours at a time. Its why you'll see 20-30 liter engines making 2500hp; it sounds horrible, until you remember they can do that all day long. Larger bearings, larger pistons and rings, larger camshafts, larger oil capacities, larger areas to distribute heat, larger valves (and seats that wear slower) -- these all work together to make these engines exceptionally reliable at their highly limited peak power. What I wish he mentioned in the video is that low RPM is highly preferable for engine reliability, such is the benefit of turbos. All those super high revving race engines don't last long at all.

Another metric is the temperature of the air being processed, which is half (or so) the trick of nitrous. Chills the mix and adds oxygen, adds boom, and 😊

A turbo isn’t powered by heat from the exhaust. It is powered by the huge increase in back pressure.

should have compared it to a 3.5L altima. Good video thanks for the knowledge.

I will say Jason that almost everything in life is optimised for a particular task, if you gain in one area you will often lose in another. I'd suggest that as fast as the Bugatti is at the 1/4 mile, it wasn't the focus of the designers, but he McLaren designers could pay more attention here because what they wanted to do was more attainable. Thumbs up though.

Much better sound!

All three!

I admit I thought I knew most of this. I was wrong 😅 Thanks man

Man I love your content but never get your notifications!

Never knew i needed this video BUT YEAH, LIKE BEFORE THE VIEW.

I get my fix for power and acceleration from superbikes at the track where lack of mass and RPM is king. I do sometimes ride them on the street, but having access to that much power and acceleration and not being able to use it without risking jail time or death is a constant sensation of being blue-balled, that does get old real fast. For a street car, my 981 Porsche Boxster GTS gives me all the thrills while still keeping it mostly legal. Its a great formula with a little bit of displacement, 3.4L with a little bit of rpms at 8k, combined with the increased sensation of speed from a convertible, and the super low CG from a naturally low sitting Boxer engine, and the best position to mount the engine rear-mid with RWD.

The viper’s numbers at 8:30 for volumetric airflow are really the ideal numbers if it had perfect volumetric efficiency, and the fact that it is so much more than the other engines despite making the same power as the t.50 shows that it should really be making more like 750-800 hp if the heads could flow better

A good explanation on why nitrious/pure oxygen isnt a reliable option [or even the fuel alternatives].

Nice seeing the Kiwi logo 😊

power rear window is great. del Sol has it too. definitely more cruiser and handling than power there though.

It'd be interesting to have you talk about Subaru with their 2.4 liter turbo engines, also using boost, cvt contributing to keeping in the best torque range, in a decent displacement.

My preference is boost if I absolutely have to choose, but all three is the best!

All three. good size engine, long stroke/bore ratio, high rpm, medium boost.

I find it interesting that no one ever mentions that the GMA t50 is a hybrid. Not a huge power bump from the system, but it's there.

The amount of air pulled off the boundary layer at the pressurized area also accounts for some part of the equation also

2:44 I don't know about this specific analysis as a comparison for airflow. I think the efficiency of intake and exhaust flow vs rpm, vs boost, vs displacement seems much more relevant. Because The L/min is not adressed as function of L/per rotation. But it is obviously still relevant for the question of engine power being made at a given moment.

@mriguy3202

The l/rotation is the same as l/revolution and the time part of that is implied in the unit, literally 'per second', like it was expressed in rev/minute or you could state it rotations/second.

Yes certainly. I apologize, I did not phrase that well and imagined people were following along from the prior statement. I should have said something like: Because the L/min is not extrapolated from a more detailed scale. (Specifically, flow rate per rotation relative to the variables for each approach). It misses out on illustrating the differences across the 3 and suggests more parity than there is. (The line wasn't so much about the illustrated unit, but the process of having a smaller level of detail being examined then expanded.) *Though it ended up just being sort of a cursory discussion as a lead in to talking about the 750S anyway. As opposed to his more detailed whiteboard discussions. Thinking about it now, Driving 4 Answers may have made a video on the topic more like my initial thought, so one could argue there isn't need to cover it in the same way regardless.

I think boost should be as low as possible, the power to torque ratio should be at 0.5 or above and torque at max rpm should be at 90% peak torque or above, which ranks rpm higher than displacement and displacement higher than boost. I tend to see peak power as a gimmick, as it only describes, up to which speed you can stay at peak wheel torque and how fast you can go. I would aim for usable power at low rpm (primary with displacement, only minimal amounts of boost) and peak power with a power to torque ratio of at least 0.5. So peak power would in the end be mainly achieved by using higher rpm but you don't have to rely on rpm alone. Let's say, you want to have about 70 kW at 2000 rpm. You need 335 Nm at 2000 rpm, which can be delivered with 3.0l displacement and about 0.1bar boost. Peak power should at least be at 167,5 kW or about 170 kW. If you are good at designing engines, you use the given limits and increase power with higher rpm, therefor flattening the torque curve. You should be able to reach at least ~240 kW at 7500 rpm. To put this in to scale: This translates into a range of displacements for normal road cars between 1,5l up to 3l (120 kW up to 240 kW), which one could claim to be reasonable.

I really like the 2.0L L4 engine that's in my wife's 2016 Volvo XC90. Given the size the car (SUV) that that engine is trying to propel, I am amazed at how well that actually works given it has both a supercharger and a turbocharger. (235 kW @ 5700 rpm). Cruising at 110 km/h - I can get 7.5 L/100 km (~31.36 mpg), which again -- given the size of the vehicle -- that's pretty good without any kind of electrified assistance.

Great start! Now factor in compression ratio, the use of N2O, cam timing, valve spring weighting (pressure) and the use of lightweight sturdier components. When the engine is N/A, there are a number of things you (the builder) can do to make a large displacement engine still spin up to 8k rpm and produce large HP/Torque numbers.

Man how do you explain all these beautifully while driving a Mclaren? Like how do you concentrate man xdxd

I have always leaned toward displacement because of the three ways to make power it is the lowest stress and will most likely out last an similar output engine that either has to rev much higher or take a lot of boost to achieve. That said a big displacement motor can always be boosted for way more power and to a point reved a little higher so it has the most flexibility.

So fun watching those videos while understanding 20% of them, and remembering 10%. ✨
