   An engine or motor is a machine designed to convert one or more forms of energy into mechanical energy. [1] [2] Available energy sources include potential energy ...

3. Automotive engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_engine

   The chief characteristic of an automotive engine (compared to a stationary engine or a marine engine) is a high power-to-weight ratio. This is achieved by using a high rotational speed. However, automotive engines are sometimes modified for marine use, forming a marine automobile engine.

4. Internal combustion engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_combustion_engine

   An internal combustion engine (ICE or IC engine) is a heat engine in which the combustion of a fuel occurs with an oxidizer (usually air) in a combustion chamber that is an integral part of the working fluid flow circuit.

5. Engine configuration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_configuration

   The Swashplate engine with the K-Cycle engine is where pairs of pistons are in an opposed configuration sharing a cylinder and combustion chamber. A Delta engine has three (or its multiple) cylinders having opposing pistons, aligned in three separate planes or 'banks', so that they appear to be in a Δ when viewed along the axis of the main-shaft.

6. History of the internal combustion engine - Wikipedia

   The engine compressed the air/fuel mixture before combustion, unlike the other atmospheric engines of the time. The engine was a single-cylinder unit that displaced 6.1 dm 3, and was rated 3 PS (2,206 W) at 180/min, with a fuel consumption of 0.95 m 3 /PSh (1.29 m 3 /kWh).

7. Component parts of internal combustion engines - Wikipedia

   For a four-stroke engine, key parts of the engine include the crankshaft (purple), connecting rod (orange), one or more camshafts (red and blue), and valves. For a two-stroke engine, there may simply be an exhaust outlet and fuel inlet instead of a valve system.
