Combustion

Both diesel engines and gasoline engines are internal combustion engines, which means they are designed to make mechanical energy by converting chemical energy available in fuel. Rotary motion is required to turn the wheels of a car forward. So to make this rotary motion, pistons connected to a crankshaft move in an up and down motion to create the rotary motion. Through a series of small combustions or explosions, diesel engines and gasoline engines convert fuel into energy. Diesel and…

turbocharger, turbo, is a turbine-driven forced induction device that increases an internal combustion engine's efficiency and power output by forcing extra air into the combustion chamber. • It was invented Alferd Buchi in 1885. • A turbocharger, turbo, is a turbine-driven forced induction device that increases an internal combustion engine's efficiency and power output by forcing extra air into the combustion chamber. • Turbochargers are commonly used in passenger cars to obtain greater power…

Electric vehicles is no longer a fantasy ideal, since it have hit the road for this few recent years. In fact, there is a rise in electric cars market recently. EVs can solve the many problems that cars with combustion engine have caused. Electric cars are considered to be fuel efficient and friendly to the environment. Not only are they zero emission, EVs also have overall better performance. Electric cars reduce the oil consumption and reach out for other sources of renewable energy. Diane…

however is not the solution. Electric cars are making progress admitting, however they are still lacking practicality as well as affordability. Despite the fact electric cars produce zero emissions, they are not a suitable replacement for internal combustion engines for the sheer fact that electricity still requires a production source behind the outlet, moreover, battery technology is not advanced enough yet. Relying solely on electricity has numerous drawbacks. The idea of plugging a car…

of the automobile it suffers from one major problem, which is pollution. This pollution is due to the large amount of fossil fuels consumed by automobiles, a problem that is resulting in a complete redesign of automobiles, away from the internal combustion engine and back to their roots (“The Automobile – Effects”). In conclusion, the automobile, since its invention has revolutionized our society, both directly and indirectly due to the numerous other inventions that were required to make it a…

allowed for long distance communication in things such as telegraphs and phones. The invention of petroleum was another major driving force that allowed us to travel much faster and further than we would have before. As it was used in the internal combustion engine, it created small but contained explosions to push the pistons to drive the car forward. I believe that all of these things go hand in hand, that none of them were meant to be developed alone. Sure one or two items can stand alone…

Hello Steemians, guess it's time to drop my second STEM post. But first I'd like to recognize two individuals that may have helped me get the right start into the steem community, the persons of @sogless and @mrbreeziewrites. They've been of good guidance. Yeah, to the business of the day. Since I'm just getting to my third year in the University studying Mechanical Engineering, I should say I know just little in the world of Engineering until steemit kinda made me expose myself to that world…

in the eleventh century. Rocket propulsion was at first utilized as a part of an unobtrusive route for firecrackers; however, it progressively advanced to move imposing weaponry; and there the innovation slowed down for sometime. As the internal combustion engine continued to develop, aerospace engineers started to understand that the piston engine was self-constraining as far as the maximum performance was concerned, which could be accomplished; the point of confinement was basically one of…

engines are called external combustion engines, in which High-pressure steam is used to drive the piston which produced by boiling the water using burning coal. But this method of operating the locomotives was very inefficient as compared to the diesel and gasoline engines, which works on the concept of Internal Combustion. The combustion of gasoline or the diesel inside the cylinder produces more pressure to push the piston as compared to the Steam engines in which combustion takes place very…

A hybrid vehicle uses two or more distinct types of power, such as internal combustion engine and electric motor. While there are many types of hybrid vehicles, this paper will mainly focus on hybrid electric vehicles. Hybrid cars are a combination of electric and gas powered engines, and combine the best of both to be much more practical than just a simple gas powered or fully electric car. In the world today there are hundreds of ways to travel, like trains, planes, boats and cars. The most…
