The advantages of the internal combustion engine is that it is:
* Cheap
* High power to weight ratio
* It is possible to raise the efficiency to relatively high levels by minor means
* Emissions are minimized by advanced combustion control, design and aftertreatment. The only emission that can't be reduced by aftertreatment is carbon dioxide, here advanced control and new technology come in to play. In fact, atmosphere background emissions can very well be higher than those coming out of the tailpipe (carbon monoxide/unburned hydrocarbons).
a gasoline engine is an Internal combustion engine
It can get you places faster than walking, biking or horse & buggy!
Internal combustion engine.
and internal combustion engine and a gasoline engine are the same thing.
Reciprocating engines (piston engines) are internal combustion engines. Rotary engines ( Wankel engine) is also an internal combustion engine. In general, all types of engines in which the combustion chamber is an integrating part of the engine is considered a internal combustion engine.
in internal combustion engine combustion happens internally in cylinder and in external combustion engine combustion happens externally in boiler
The four-stroke engine used in automobiles is an example of an internal combustion engine.
combustion engine
In an internal combustion engine fuel is burned in a combustion chamber or cylinder inside the engine
The waste products of combustion leave the internal combustion engine through the exhaust valve.
Nothing at all the industrial revolution happened 40 years before the advent of the internal combustion engine and it happened a good hundred years before in england.
The internal combustion engine give rise to the auto industry.
