With all the recent emphasis on electric vehicles, we often overlook the technology that still powers most cars on the road today. The internal combustion engine (ICE) has been at the heart of the ...

Reports of the death of the internal combustion engine have been greatly exaggerated. In the wake of stalled consumer demand and stubbornly high costs, automakers around the world are furiously ...

When it comes to unconventional engine design, few exceed the Wankel rotary in terms of weirdness. Despite that, the same basic principles of internal combustion apply here: Fuel and air are mixed and ...

Ford once sketched a road where an engine's pistons never saw oil and engines ran hotter on purpose. In a late‑1980s patent application filed and granted in Europe, the company described an "uncooled ...

Optimisation of the intake system in internal combustion engines centres on enhancing the delivery of air (or air–fuel mixtures) to the combustion chamber in order to maximise power, reduce fuel ...

Converting the ignition of a fuel-air mixture into usable mechanical energy lies at the core of a dizzying number of internal combustion engines developed over the course of more than century.

From heavy-duty trucks and agricultural machinery to shipping fleets, aviation, and power generation, internal combustion engines STILL remain indispensable to both global infrastructure and mobility.

The global imperative to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality has driven extensive research into alternative fuels for internal combustion engines. These fuels encompass bio-derived ...

Automotive engineers have invested countless billions trying to improve upon the humble internal combustion engine, but not all those efforts have translated well. In fact, sometimes, things got weird ...
