When is an internal combustion engine not an internal combustion engine? When it's been transformed into a modular reforming reactor that could make hydrogen available to power fuel cells wherever ...

It's important to keep in mind that the combustion process occurs in a very brief period of time. Due to a variety of conditions that include mixture density, homogeneity, temperature, fuel ...

Wait! Don't say anything. Okay—they're gone. I didn't want those guys to hear what we were saying about them. Who? The people who flipped past this article without reading it, of course! You see, ...

Antony Ingram April 10, 2012 Comment Now! Real revolutions in engine technology are rare. By and large, the internal combustion engine has remained much the same for well over a century, with just ...

Effects of engine parameters on performance can be investigated by using a mathematical model of the engine cycle, and the computed results may be used to optimize performance. The following design ...

Sounds a bit crazy to make an engine that uses an odd number of strokes, right? We have 2, 4 and even 6-stroker engines so far, with the latter being still a prototype that injects water in the ...
