  • standardne mõõtesuurus, mille abil tehakse kindlaks mootori talitluse või bensiini plahvatuskindlus, s.o isesüttimise vastu seismise võime
  • standard measure of the performance of an engine or aviation fuel
  • standard measure of a fuel's ability to withstand compression in an internal combustion engine without undergoing pre-ignition
oktaaniarv preferred
Usage examples
  • Mida suurem on oktaaniarv, seda suuremat kokkusurumist suudab kütus enne plahvatamist taluda ja see ei ole otseselt seotud väljundvõimsuse ega kütuse energiasisaldusega massi- või mahuühiku kohta, vaid näitab lihtsalt bensiini vastupidavust detoneerida rõhu all sädemeta.

mootoroktaaniarv variant
uuringuoktaaniarv variant
octane number preferred
Usage examples
  • The higher the octane number, the more compression the fuel can withstand before detonating, and it does not relate directly to the power output or the energy content of the fuel per unit mass or volume, but simply indicates gasoline's resistance to detonating under pressure without a spark.
