no.. by definition the combustion is outside of the engine. a steam engine would be an example.
in internal combustion engine combustion happens internally in cylinder and in external combustion engine combustion happens externally in boiler
in internal combustion engine combustion happens internally in cylinder and in external combustion engine combustion happens externally in boiler
Internal combustion engines burn fuel inside the engine to generate power, while external combustion engines burn fuel outside the engine and use the resulting heat to create power, such as in steam engines. Internal combustion engines are more common in vehicles due to their compact size and efficiency, while external combustion engines are used in specific applications like power plants and some marine propulsion systems.
In an internal combustion engine fuel is burned in a combustion chamber or cylinder inside the engine
External Combustion engine is an engine in which combustion of fuel takes place outside the cylinder. e.g.Coal fired steam engines in trains
In terms of engines, an external combustion engine such as a steam engine burns fuel outside of the pressure cylinder used to drive the piston. An internal combustion engine such as a petrol or diesel engine burns the fuel inside the pressure cylinder used to drive the piston.
Internal engine has its energy ignited in the cylinder. like 99.9% of engines today An external combustion example is a steam engine where the heating prosses is done in an boiler out side the engine.
A steam engine is an external combustion engine.
Combustion chamber
Internal combustion engine is where the fuel is ignited in the cylinder to make the piston move, petrol or diesel. A steam engine has an external pressure vessel to supply the steam to the cylinder to push the piston. the is no combustion in the engine as such.
The area is called the combustion chamber.
A train DUHHH! An external combustion engine.
