this can be calculated by measurements of the bore
Rushing past the outside to cool the engine. Internally to mix with the fuel and make an explosive mixture inside the piston(s).

The cylinder, is the body of the engine that has been bored out in order to place a piston inside of it. The piston rides inside the cylinder.
Mark Aguirre
The piston moves up and down inside the engine cylinder.
The piston of a gauge pressure rotating until its freely suspend because the weight of the piston is balanced by the centrifugal force. The centrifugal force is created by the rotation of the piston and is equal to the weight of the piston.
Increasing the pressure inside the piston cylinder would cause the piston to lower since the higher pressure pushes down on the piston.
A piston is a plunger, or a plug that moves inside a cube, a cylinder. The piston diameter is the diameter of this plunger/plug. It's a tiny bit smaller than the diameter of the cylinder the piston moves in.

In terms of engines, an external combustion engine such as a steam engine burns fuel outside of the pressure cylinder used to drive the piston. An internal combustion engine such as a petrol or diesel engine burns the fuel inside the pressure cylinder used to drive the piston.
