Chapter 1 ENGINES 1.1. INTRODUCTION The term‚ Engine‚ coined from the French word Engin‚ is nothing new to engineers. Motors converting heat energy into motion are usually referred to as engines (Collins English Dictionary - Complete & Unabridged 10th Edition‚ 2010). The type of engine being focused on in this report is an Internal Combustion Engine (as shown in Fig 1.1) in which a fuel is burnt along with air to produce hot gases which are then used to generate the necessary power

Rotary Engine – Huge Power in a Small Box According to Philip’s Encyclopedia Wankel rotary engine or just Wankel engine is “Internal combustion engine with rotors instead of pistons.” That not so popular engine is actually about two times lighter than a four cylinder piston engine‚ the one that we all have in our cars‚ for the same power output. It also has four times less moving parts. Much simpler‚ much lighter‚ much smaller it has numerous advantages over a conventional piston engine.

systems P1) Oil - Vegetable Oil Vegetable oils are a triglyceride that is extracted from agricultural crops‚ these oils are natural products and therefore their chemical composition changes from one crop to another. They are used in engines and chainsaws as a lubricant instead of petroleum based oils. Canola Oil – made from rapeseed – is an example of a vegetable oil‚ it is cleaner than petroleum based oils and has less health risks as petroleum oils are commonly carcinogens and can

Steam engines were the first engine type to see widespread use. They were first invented by Thomas Newcomen in 1705‚ and James Watt (who we remember each time we talk about "60-watt light bulbs" and the such) made big improvements to steam engines in 1769. Steam engines ¬powered all early locomotives‚ steam boats and factories‚ and therefore acted as the foundation of the Industrial Revolution. In this article‚ we’ll learn exactly how steam engines work.74 Steam Engine Operation The

confused with the catapult. The Mangonel is believed to be invented by the Romans in 400BC. During the Medieval age the engine was used most by the French. It’s named Mangonel because the Latin word manganon means “an engine of war”. Mangonels were referred to as scorpions because the arm of the engine was like the tail of the animal. The Mangonel wasn’t as accurate as other siege engines but did go a greater distance. The Mangonel has a long arm attached to a bowl like bucket. The base had wheels so

Internal Combustion Engines An internal-combustion engine is a heat engine that burns fuel and air inside a combustion chamber located within the engine proper. Simply stated‚ a heat engine is an engine that converts heat energy to mechanical energy. The internal- combustion engine should be distinguished from the external- combustion engine‚ for example‚ the steam engine and the Stirling engine‚ which burns fuel outside the prime mover‚ that is‚ the device that actually produces mechanical

Parts of the marine diesel engine Below is a cross-sectional view of a Sulzer Main Diesel Engine and the names of the component parts. The starting air valve is used to lead highly compressed air to push the piston for turning the engine when starting. In this 2-stroke engine‚ the air intake and exhaust are taken into the engine cylinder liner through scavenging ports and exhaust ports. The cylinder head covers the top of the cylinder and houses the starting air valve‚ fuel valve or injector
