The invention of the internal combustion engine is most probably the result of the developments of several individuals. Around 1780‚ Dutch scientist Christiaan Huygens built an engine that used gunpowder as a fuel‚ but this engine was far too dangerous to be practical. His assistant‚ Denis Papin‚ also experimented with developing an internal combustion engine‚ building a simple steam-powered device around 1790. Again‚ this engine was not practical‚ and not until the early nineteenth century did the

The piston engines were used to rotate the fans at high speeds which provide the thrust for the aircraft to move forward. Since the thrust that could be developed by the piston engine is limited‚ they cannot be used in aircrafts that need high speed and thrust. Hence‚ piston engines are mostly restricted to training flights and slow flights. There were many modifications like the supercharger that were added to the piston engine which provided extras thrust to the existing engines. The supercharger

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
