In an internal combustion engine fuel is burned in a combustion chamber or cylinder inside the engine
It mixes fuel and air in the proper proportions to be burned in an internal combustion engine.
combustion
No the fuel is burnt inside the engine, hence the term "internal combustion"
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.
The four-stroke engine used in automobiles is an example of an internal combustion engine.
Internal combustion engine
An internal combustion engine burns fuel inside.
no.. by definition the combustion is outside of the engine. a steam engine would be an example.
Fuel for the internal combustion engine.
is generally proportional to engine capacity
An external combustion engine (EC engine) is a heat engine where an fuel is burned outside the engine, which heats an internal working fluid. The fluid expands and drives the engine to produce motion or usable work. Conversely, internal combustion engines burn or explode the fuel within the engine, using the expanding exhaust gases to do work. Examples of external combustion engines are coal and oil-fired boilers on ships and in locomotives, and the "Stanley Steamer, " an early steam-powered motorcar.
