It produces a transfer of energy...from potential to kinetic, or Torque when it comes to an engine.
An internal combustion engine burns fuel inside.
No the fuel is burnt inside the engine, hence the term "internal combustion"
Internal combustion engine
In an internal combustion engine fuel is burned in a combustion chamber or cylinder inside the engine
no.. by definition the combustion is outside of the engine. a steam engine would be an example.
An engine that burns fuel inside itself is officially known as an internal combustion engine. Most cars have these.
internal combustion engine is one in which we burn the air fuel mixtue inside the cylinder of engine eg car engine external combustion engine is one in which we burn the fuel outside of engine and then take the hot gases inside the prime movers for taking out work eg gas turbine
A reciprocating engine is a type of internal combustion engine, where the combustion of fuel generates power. Therefore, a reciprocating engine is not a combustion generator itself, but rather a machine that uses combustion to produce mechanical energy.
The four-stroke engine used in automobiles is an example of an internal combustion engine.
In an Internal Combustion Engine, the Fuel is burnt in the cylinder or vessel eg. Diesel or Petrol engine used in Cars.Gasoline engines, Wankel engines, diesels, gas turbines are all examples of internal combustion.In an External Combustion Engine, the internal working fuel is not burnt. Here the fluid is being heated from an external source. The fuel is heated and expanded through the internal mechanism of the engine resulting in work. eg. Steam Turbine, Steam engine Trains.
The source of thermal energy in an internal combustion engine is from the combustion of fuel (such as gasoline or diesel) inside the engine cylinders. The controlled explosion of the fuel-air mixture generates heat energy that is converted into mechanical energy to power the vehicle.
I believe youre asking what is meant by internal combustion engine. The internal refers to where the combustion take ls plaace. I.e. The fuel is ignited INSIDE the cylinder
