Is more energy released when fuel is ignited under compression than when ignited at normal atmospheric pressure? (Like in a internal combustion engine.)
Suppose the same amount of fuel and air were ignited in two separate enclosed containers. If one is at normal pressure and the other is compressed, is there more potential energy released in one or the other? Not really important, just curious.
