octaangetal
Also known as octane number, research octane number, RON, motor octane number, MON, anti-knock index, AKI, pump octane number
standard measure of an engine or aviation fuel's ability to withstand compression without detonating
AI overview
Octane rating measures how well a fuel can withstand being compressed in an engine without exploding prematurely. Higher octane fuels are more resistant to this detonation, which matters because engines designed for higher octane fuel perform better and more reliably when you use the fuel they require.
