INTRODUCTION An engine is a device which transforms one form of energy into another form. Most of the engines convert thermal engine to mechanical work and therefore they are called heat engine. Heat engine can be broadly classified into two types. i. Internal combustion engine ii. External combustion engine 1.1 CLASSIFICATION OF INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE:- This type of engine is again classified into two types. i. Rotary ii. Reciprocating The reciprocating engine is a highly complex engine and has

Box 91775-1111‚ Mashhad‚ IRAN. m-razavi@ferdowsi.um.ac.ir SUMMARY The way in which position of spark plug affects combustion in spark ignition engine was studied by using the developed quasi-dimensional cycle simulation (using two-zone burning model) program. The purpose of this paper is to model the geometric interaction between the propagating flame and the general cylindrical combustion chamber

they don’t produce the pollution associated with internal combustion engines. According to the Electric Vehicle Association of Canada‚ or EVAC‚ even EVs recharged from coal-powered electric generators cut carbon emission roughly in half. EVs recharged from cleaner forms of electrical power generation‚ such as hydropower and nuclear plants‚ can reduce carbon emissions to less than one percent of those currently produced by internal combustion engines. So‚ even in the worst case scenario‚ cars operated

car‚ comes when you look at the power source‚ in the common car an Internal Combustion Engine is used to convert fuel (generally unsustainable fossil fuels like diesel or petrol) to mechanical energy‚ the Electric Car uses electric motors powered by batteries or an onboard fuel cell. The common car with its Internal Combustion Engine has advantages and disadvantages; the cost to purchase a car with an internal combustion engine compared to an electric car is lower‚ as there is the ability to mass

Compressed-air engine A Compressed-air engine is a pneumatic actuator that creates useful work by expanding compressed air. They have existed in many forms over the past two centuries‚ ranging in size from hand held turbines up to several hundred horsepower. Some types rely on pistons and cylinders‚ others use turbines. Many compressed air engines improve their performance by heating the incoming air‚ or the engine itself. Some took this a stage further and burned fuel in the cylinder or turbine

1807 Nicé phore Nié and his brother Claude probably created the world’s pce first internal combustion engine which they called a Pyré olophore‚ but they chose to install it in a boat on the river Saone in France. Coincidentally‚ in 1807 the Swiss inventor Franç Isaac de Rivaz designed his own ’de Rivaz internal combustion ois engine’ and used it to develop the world’s first vehicle‚ to be powered by such an engine. The Nié pces’ Pyré olophore was fuelled by a mixture of Lycopodium powder (dried Lycopodium

Those engines were used to manufacture an automobile for fast travel from one place to another. Because they were not much in use‚ those few cars were not enough to threat the environment. Those engines were not fast enough so mastermind humans invented bigger and

the combustion process and are emitted into the atmosphere from the tail pipe. There are also hydrocarbons emitted as a result of vaporization of gasoline and from the crankcase of the automobile. The clean air act of 1977 set limits as to the amount of each of these pollutants that could be emitted from an automobile. The manufacturers answer was the addition of certain pollution control devices and the creation of a self-adjusting engine. 1981 saw the first of these self-adjusting engines. They
