Essentially creates a continuous force.
At ignition, the fuel / air mix burns , raising the temperature and pressure in the combustion space, this pressure acts over the piston area creating a force which is translated (via the connecting rod) as torque to the crankshaft.
What else can I help you with?
Are Gasoline engines and diesel engines external or internal combustion engines?
They are both internal combustion engines
Which type of engine is classified as internal combustion?
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.

Are both Gasoline and diesel engines classified as external combustion engines?
No, they are both internal combustion engines.
What type of cars use internal combustion engines?
Gasoline and Diesel engines are internal combustion engines. The fuel explodes (combusts) internally (in the cylinder) and releases energy that is used to move the vehicle. Electric engines and steam engines are not internal combustion engines by definition. Steam engines combust their fuel externally to the "engine". The vast majority of passenger vehicles produced throughout history are driven by internal combustion engines.
What is the SIC Code for Electrical Equipment for Internal Combustion Engines?

Does internal combustion engines uses nuclear fusion?
No, the explosion of compressed gases powers internal combustion.
Why do cars need petrol or diesel?
Petrol and diesel engines are internal combustion engines. The internal combustion that turns the engine and powers the wheels is created by the combustion of fuel. No fuel, no combustion, and nothing to drive the wheels.
