Chapter 1 ENGINES 1.1. INTRODUCTION The term‚ Engine‚ coined from the French word Engin‚ is nothing new to engineers. Motors converting heat energy into motion are usually referred to as engines (Collins English Dictionary - Complete & Unabridged 10th Edition‚ 2010). The type of engine being focused on in this report is an Internal Combustion Engine (as shown in Fig 1.1) in which a fuel is burnt along with air to produce hot gases which are then used to generate the necessary power

Turboprop engines Turboprop engines are a type of aircraft powerplant that use a gas turbine to drive a propeller. The gas turbine is designed specifically for this application‚ with almost all of its output being used to drive the propeller. The engine’s exhaust gases contain little energy compared to a jet engine and play a minor role in the propulsion of the aircraft. The propeller is coupled to the turbine through a reduction gear that converts the high RPM‚ low torque output to low RPM‚

Steam engines were the first engine type to see widespread use. They were first invented by Thomas Newcomen in 1705‚ and James Watt (who we remember each time we talk about "60-watt light bulbs" and the such) made big improvements to steam engines in 1769. Steam engines ¬powered all early locomotives‚ steam boats and factories‚ and therefore acted as the foundation of the Industrial Revolution. In this article‚ we’ll learn exactly how steam engines work.74 Steam Engine Operation The

How is the steam engine significant in history? The original steam engine was built in 1712 by a man with a creative‚ innovative mind whose name was Thomas Newcomen. From a never ending search for energy sources came this machine which impacted and changed the world by maximizing production‚ efficiency‚ reliability and minimizing the total times to make products. Through this invention came radical changes in work as well as transportation. The countries that believed in this machines capabilities

As we know the modern car engine is works in the internal combustion so it is call internal combustion engines. But for the older technology‚ they used External Combustion Engines. It is far lower efficiency than internal combustion engines. The steam

confused with the catapult. The Mangonel is believed to be invented by the Romans in 400BC. During the Medieval age the engine was used most by the French. It’s named Mangonel because the Latin word manganon means “an engine of war”. Mangonels were referred to as scorpions because the arm of the engine was like the tail of the animal. The Mangonel wasn’t as accurate as other siege engines but did go a greater distance. The Mangonel has a long arm attached to a bowl like bucket. The base had wheels so

Chapter 11 Internal Combustion Engines 11.1 Introduction Internal combustion engines differ from external combustion engines in that the energy released from the burning of fuel occurs inside the engine rather than in a separate combustion chamber. Examples of external combustion engines are gas and steam turbines. The gas turbine power plant utilizes products of combustion from a separate combustor as the working fluid. These gases are used to drive the gas turbine and produce useful power. The
