Piston Speed Calculator

Calculate mean piston speed in internal combustion engines

📖 Piston Speed

Mean piston speed is the average speed of a piston during one complete cycle. It's calculated as 2 × Stroke × RPM / 60 for a 4-stroke engine.

💡 Tips & Information

  • Piston speed is typically measured in meters per second (m/s)
  • Formula: MPS = 2 × Stroke × RPM / 60
  • Typical values: 15-25 m/s for street engines, 25-30 m/s for race engines
  • Higher piston speeds increase wear and require stronger components
  • Piston speed affects engine reliability and longevity
