COMBUSTION ENGINES 6.1 Introduction Perhaps the best-known engine in the world is the reciprocating internal combustion (IC) engine. Virtually every person who has driven an automobile or pushed a power lawnmower has used one. By far the most widely used IC engine is the spark-ignition gasoline engine‚ which takes us to school and work and on pleasure jaunts. Although others had made significant contributions‚ Niklaus Otto is generally credited with the invention of the engine and with the

Steam Engine Pre invention: Pre invention: Before the arrival of the steam engine‚ life in the industrial revolution was very dissimilar. Control typically came after one of three foundations: wind‚ Animals power‚ or water. Both of these control causes had their welfares and disadvantages. Wind. Wind power is free‚ and binding it fixes not include multifaceted equipment‚ actually nonentity extra than a navigate‚ or in the circumstance of a windmill‚ a actual great propeller.

The GE matrix is an alternative technique used in brand marketing and product management to help a company decide what product(s) to add to its product portfolio‚ and which market opportunities are worthy of continued investment. Also known as the ’Directional Policy Matrix‚ ’ the GE multi-factor model was first developed by General Electric in the 1970s. Conceptually‚ the GE Matrix is similar to the Boston Box as it is plotted on a two-dimensional grid. In most versions of the matrix: * the

The Diesel Engine Diesel engines are very similar to the gasoline engine you may find in a car. They both are internal combustion engines‚ have a four stroke cycle‚ and convert chemical energy from fuel into mechanical energy. However‚ the manner in which the combustion stroke is attained sets these two engines apart‚ and although a seemingly meaningless change‚ a large change in efficiency results. (Diesel Engines vs. Gasoline Engines) The diesel engine was invented by Rudolf Diesel in 1892

WANKEL ENGINE The Wankel engine‚ invented by German engineer Felix Wankel‚ is a type of internal combustion engine which uses a rotary design to convert pressure into a rotating motion instead of using reciprocating pistons. Its four-stroke cycle takes place in a space between the inside of an oval-like epitrochoid-shaped housing and a rotor that is similar in shape to a Reuleaux triangle but with sides that are somewhat flatter. This design delivers smooth high-rpm power from a compact size. Since

Diesel Engines Diesel engines are everywhere; they are used in all sorts of vehicle platforms. From Volkswagen Jetta’s‚ to big eighteen wheel tractor trailer trucks. They provide more torque then a regular gasoline engine because of the long stroke of the piston. Most diesel engines make peak torque at very low rpm. Diesel engines do not have spark plugs. They develop combustion by heating up the air going into the cylinder‚ while the air is heated the fuel injector sprays into the bowl of
