well you see when the gasoline enters the engine the piston compresses it and then the spark ignites it when it doesn't burn all the commbustable gases in the combustion chamber it goes out the exhaust. so in other words you didn't get all the power out of the gas that went in. since the combustion of the gasoline in the combustion chamber is the engines source of power if the gasoline doesn't completely combust the engine loses power from that. This is why when a vehicle is not firing on one cylinder or more you have a great loss in power. So by making sure your engine combusts the fuel properly you can get a increase in power and performance. A way to do that is to buy high performance spark plugs

What effect di dthe internal combustion engine have on transportation?
The internal combustion engine extended the range of individualized transportation.
What is the affect of increasing inlet air temperature in ci engine?
Increasing the temperature of the air at the inlet to any combustion engine will have a degrading effect on the engine's performance. Air expands when heated, and thus a lesser quantity of air is drawn into the combustion chamber. Indeed, turbochargers often have their air temperature cooled so as to allow more air in.
How does pressure effect jet engine performance?
Pressure of WHAT .
What is atomisation in IC engine?
In internal-combustion engines, the mixing of fuel with air or some other oxidizer within the engine in order to achieve complete and rapid combustion of the fuel.
What is hemi engine?
A hemi engine refers to one of the most popular high performance engine types.
How many revolutions of the crankshaft does a 2 cycle engine make to complete a combustion cycle?

What is the most important difference between an international combustion engine and an external combustion engine?
in internal combustion engine combustion happens internally in cylinder and in external combustion engine combustion happens externally in boiler
What type of combustion engine is the steam engine?
It is External-combustion engine.
Is steam power plant is internal combustion or external combustion engine?
A steam engine is an external combustion engine.
Internal combustion engine of a gasoline engine?
a gasoline engine is an Internal combustion engine
What did the internal combustion engine lead to the development of?
The automotive industry was the net result of the internal combustion engine, because the engine addressed the deficiencies of external combustion engines for road vehicles. The steam engine was the precursor to gas-fired piston engines (1860s), and the invention of the diesel internal combustion engine by Rudolf Diesel, a German scientist, in 1897. An early gasoline engine was built by Wilhelm Maybach in 1890. To this day, the basic form of the engine remains the same, although with many innovations to improve performance and efficiency.
