The original concept of combustion engines as we understand them dates as far back as the late 1800s. And while they are more or less a solved science today, they definitely didn't start that way.

Reports of the death of the internal combustion engine have been exaggerated. Electric vehicles were once poised to diminish the ubiquity of traditional engines, but automakers are booking huge losses ...

Combustion efficiency in internal combustion engines refers to the proportion of chemical energy in the fuel that is converted into useful mechanical work. Attaining high combustion efficiency is ...

In case you missed it, the automotive industry has been on a steady trajectory of internal combustion engine (ICE) downsizing for years. Battery-powered electric vehicles may capture most of the ...

Converting the ignition of a fuel-air mixture into usable mechanical energy lies at the core of a dizzying number of internal combustion engines developed over the course of more than century.

Despite gasoline and diesel fuels both being used for internal combustion, they're different enough that they require entirely different engines. You can't pull up to the pump in a diesel pickup and ...

There was a time, not long ago, when we all believed there would soon be a moment when internal combustion engines would be completely replaced by electric drives of one nature or another. In the ...

Heat transfer in internal combustion engines governs both performance and durability by controlling temperatures within the combustion chamber, cylinder walls, piston crown and cylinder head.
