You've heard the narrative: the era of internal combustion is on its way out, set to be replaced by cars with batteries and maybe, someday, hydrogen fuel cells. But the market isn’t moving in a ...

As the world is gradually turning into an electric vehicle market, individuals tend to believe that the internal combustion engine is approaching its demise. This technology has been driving ...

Intake, compression, power, then exhaust. Every 4-stroke engine ever made – about 80% of all engines currently in existence – function on this principle – even rotary engines. But now, Porsche has ...

The days of internal combustion engines are numbered. Unfortunately, the exact number is constantly shifting, with regulators moving the goalposts so often that manufacturers are left scrambling to ...

For more than 100 years, the internal combustion engine (ICE) has been the mechanism of choice for vehicles of all shapes and sizes. Across all configurations, the principle is the same: a mix of fuel ...

Depending on the type of electric motor setup, hybrids use several interesting ways to charge and recover battery power while ...

A new type of flame produced on the International Space Station (ISS) doesn’t just look cool with its spherical blue glow—it is cool. Cool flames, which burn at temperatures much lower than ...

Heat transfer in internal combustion engines governs both performance and durability by controlling temperatures within the combustion chamber, cylinder walls, piston crown and cylinder head.

Several days into it, the ongoing auto show in Shanghai, China, continues to capture the attention of the automotive world. The time that has passed since the event opened its doors allowed us to go ...

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.

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 ...
