What is the difference between internal combustion engine and heat engine?

An internal combustion engine is a type of heat engine that generates mechanical energy by burning fuel inside the engine. A heat engine, on the other hand, is a broader category of engines that convert heat energy into mechanical work through various processes, including combustion, thermodynamic cycles, and heat transfer. In essence, all internal combustion engines are heat engines, but not all heat engines are internal combustion engines.


How is car engine classified?

A car engine can be classified based on the number of cylinders it has. It could be a 4 cylinder, 6 cylinder, 8 cylinder, 10 cylinder, or 12 cylinder (the last two engines are mainly used in exotic cars). There are also rotary engines, electric engines, natural gas engines and hybrid (electric/gas) engines. Each of these has subcategories as in the most common piston engines listed above.
