Meanings of higher compression in English

It has a higher compression peak and serves to increase the car engine's performance.

However, the 2-piece nonlocking design achieved significantly higher compression.

That higher compression ratio means higher efficiency from the engine, or more miles from the fuel.

PERFORMANCE - Many diesel engines produce more torque than gasoline engines for a given displacement due to their higher compression ratio.

Diesel engines also have a higher compression ratio, and the heavier diesel fuel has a higher energy density, according to Freese.

Ethanol and the newer fuels will yield better fuel efficiency as innovations like higher compression-ratio engines make their way into vehicles.

Mazda has solved that with a higher compression ratio, squeezing the air and fuel mixture further and boosting temperatures in the combustion chamber, Hitomi said.

A 2-piece nonlocking baseplate reaches higher compression levels and risks material strip-out at lower insertional torques compared with a monoblock and 2-piece locking design.
