Vehicle CC Full Form
What is the full form of Vehicle CC?
Vehicle CC stands for the cubic capacity of the vehicle.CC gives the volume of the engine of the vehicle. The cubic capacity (cc) measures the vehicle’s capacity or ability to store fuel and air. The measurement of CC gives us the power output of the vehicle. There is a direct relationship between CC to power production. The more the CC the more will be the car’s power production hence better mileage. Mileage is referred to the distance travelled by the vehicle per litre of fuel. The vehicle can cover more distance with less fuel if the power production is higher.
Use of CC
CC is used for determining the engine's capacity of fuel in various other units, including litre, cubic centimetre (cm3), etc.
The relation is as mentioned,
1000 CC = 1000cm3= 1 litre
This simply means that if a car has an engine capacity of 1000cc then its fuel capacity is 1 litre.
Formula for CC
There is an immediate formula for the measurement of CC. the formula can be used to determine the energy efficiency and the performance of the vehicle.
\begin{equation}
V=\pi / 4 \times(D)^2 \times H \times N
\end{equation}
Where,
V= Volume
D= Bore diameter
N= Number of Cylinders
H= Stroke length
Advantages of Higher CC
The higher CC in a vehicle provides the vehicle with enhanced power and torque. This in return provides better pick-up, increased load-carrying capacity and better speed. This is usually preferred by sports car enthusiasts since they thrive on speed and intensified performance.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
The CC in the car is used to measure the power generated by the engine of the car. This way the performance of the engine can be determined and hence the customer or buyer can have a parameter for the choice of the vehicle based on performance.
Yes. The CC of engines has a huge impact on the speed and performance of the vehicle. The greater the CC of the engine of a car the higher the speed.
Cars with 1000 CC result in better mileage. A CC of 1000-1800 is also economical and affordable.
The higher the CC of a vehicle more is its power production capacity which ultimately leads to higher fuel expenditure.
Horsepower measures the power of the engine while CC measures the volume of the engine. Both are correlative terms and are interconvertible.
