What are the types of combustion?
There are two main types of combustion. These are complete, in which the reactant burns in oxygen producing a few reactions, such as carbon dioxide and water. Incomplete combustion occurs when there is not enough oxygen to complete a reaction.
How can chemical energy be converted into mechanical energy?
Engines use fuel to produce mechanical energy. For instance, a car's internal combustion engine uses chemical energy stored in fuel to turn a drive shaft.The idea of internal combustion is to burn the compressed mixture of fuel and air to produce expanding gas to convert into mechanical energy.
What happen when we put flame in the ethanol?
When flame is applied to ethanol (C2H5OH), it undergoes combustion, a chemical reaction where it reacts with oxygen (O2) in the air to produce carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and heat. The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of ethanol is: C2H5OH + 3O2 → 2CO2 + 3H2O In this reaction, the ethanol molecule breaks apart, and its carbon and hydrogen atoms combine with oxygen atoms from the air to form carbon dioxide and water vapor, respectively. This reaction releases a significant amount of heat energy, which is why ethanol is used as a fuel in alcohol burners, stoves, and engines. When you observe a flame applied to ethanol, you will see a blue-colored flame, indicating complete combustion. The heat produced by the combustion of ethanol can be used for various purposes, such as heating, cooking, or powering engines.
Why is stoichiometric combustion rare?
Stoichiometric combustion is almost never possible because of imperfect fuel-air mixing. For economy and safety, most combustion equipment (such as heaters, furnaces, and engines) should operate with excess air to ensure that fuel is not wasted and that combustion is complete

What is the rapid burning of fuels that takes place in engines is called?
The reaction between oxygen and another substance is called oxidation, such as the formation of rust. The rapid oxidation of fuel is called combustion.
How do engines lose energy?
Engines lose energy via friction, thermal losses, and a reaction between the atmospheric nitrogen sapping energy in the combustion reaction
Are Gasoline engines and diesel engines external or internal combustion engines?
They are both internal combustion engines
How is heat utilised in the field of science and technology to do various work?
Most often by heating water into steam, or by expanding gasses (internal combustion engines).
Are both Gasoline and diesel engines classified as external combustion engines?
No, 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.
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 has the author Harry R Ricardo written?

Gas and diesel engines are what type of engines?

What are the disadvantages of internal combustion engines?
what is disadvantage of enternal combustion engine
