In the design of an articulated connecting-rod system for a radial engine, certain conflicting desiderata have to be fulfilled, which of necessity dictate recourse to compromise. Considerations of strength, weight, a small overall diameter, component interchangeability and satisfactory combustion in all cylinders, often mean irregular disposition of the wrist-pin centres on the master rod and variations in the stroke of different cylinders; consequent on which small differences occur in compression ratio, leading to dissimilar combustion conditions between the cylinders.
