Combustion occurs in the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, which is typically located within the cylinder. During the engine's cycle, a mixture of air and fuel is compressed within the cylinder, and when ignited by a spark plug (in gasoline engines) or through compression (in diesel engines), it creates a rapid expansion of gases. This expansion pushes the piston down, converting chemical energy into mechanical energy to power the vehicle.
