The swept volume (V_s) is the volume displaced by the piston as it travels from BDC (Bottom Dead Centre) to TDC (Top Dead Centre). The clearance volume (V_c) is the remaining volume above the piston at TDC — it cannot be swept and defines the compression limit.
Given total cylinder volume at BDC V_BDC (m³) and clearance volume at TDC V_TDC (m³), compute the swept volume V_s and confirm it matches the bore-stroke formula using bore B (m) and stroke S (m).
