siege engine that was employed in the middle ages. It is a modified version of the catapult that uses a counterweight to throw a large stone or blunt object. This means the only power it uses‚ is gravity. This invention brought about the end of knights‚ and castles. It’s usually made out of wood and some other materials‚ so it’s fairly simple to create; which means‚ most if not all societies in the middle ages had one. The trebuchet is often confused with the earlier torsion siege engines. But the

2013 The Diesel Engine: Making a Comeback The diesel engine has provided the world with cheap and efficient power for over one hundred years. The invention was first thought up by Rudolph Diesel in 1892. He wanted to create an engine that would be more efficient than the steam engine‚ which was only 12% efficient. He filed for a patent in Germany in February of 1892. He was granted a patent for a “Working Method and Design for Combustion Engines...new efficient‚ thermal engine” (History). With

Heat engine lab Intro: when an engine runs‚ it pumps pistons that move up and down and provide energy to the engine to it to go. These pistons move because of pressure and heat. This work done on the system is not only mechanical but its also thermodynamic. When a piston undergoes one full cycle its displacement is zero because it comes back to its resting place. This means that its net thermodynamic work to be done should also be zero‚ as well as its total internal energy. In order to test this

Internal Combustion Engines Introduction Internal Combustion Engine‚ a heat engine in which the fuel is burned ( that is‚ united with oxygen ) within the confining space of the engine itself. This burning process releases large amounts of energy‚ which are transformed into work through the mechanism of the engine. This type of engine different from the steam engine‚ which process with an external combustion engine that fuel burned apart from the engine. The principal types of internal combustion

The Invention of the jet Engine Mohammadhossein Khoddammohammadi January 25‚ 2014 A jet engine is a reaction engine discharging a fast moving jet that generates thrust by jet propulsion in accordance with Newton’s laws of motion. This broad definition of jet engines includes turbojets‚ turbofans‚ rockets‚ ramjets‚ and pulse jets. In general‚ jet engines are combustion engines but non-combusting forms also exist. In common parlance‚ the term jet engine loosely refers to an internal

heard about two and four stroke engines. Two stroke engines got its name from the fact that the required strokes are completed in one revolution. In short there is one power stroke in one revolution. In the case of four stroke engines the four strokes are completed in two revolutions‚ or there is a power stroke in two revolutions. Then how about a six stroke engine. The name of the engine has nothing to do with the number of revolutions or anything of that sort. This engine got its name due to its construction

the same. Gasoline is typically burned in spark-ignition internal combustion engines‚ in which a source of energy (a spark) is required to start the ignition process. Simply put‚ these engines mix gasoline vapor and air‚ compress the result‚ apply a spark to initiate combustion‚ and then force the byproducts of combustion out as exhaust. Gasoline is well suited to this process‚ although sometimes either it or engine operating conditions can cause "knock‚" an unwanted and destructive condition in
